This great World War II era Vintage Ad was printed for the July, 1943 issue. These are wonderful advertisements, and we only have a limited number available.
Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
America’s Roads to Victory
are boulevards of steel and stamina
“Faster, faster,” is wartime America’s cry to the
railroads. Speed the troop trains! Speed the supply
and munitions trains! Speed the critical materials to
the factories!
It's a challenge the railroads are taking in stride.
They're coming through on every assignment, even
though their need today is more new equipment than
is available under existing priorities.
The railroads are mastering war traffic problems be-
cause they were reedy with a modem plant
that, in recent years, had been utilized to
only half its capacity.
The Milwaukee Road, for example, prepared
with new power as well as new freight
and passenger cars, in the decade before war struck. It
improved more than 2,000 miles of track wick heavier
rail and new ballast. It rebuilt over 80,000 lineal feet
of bridges. It reduced curvatures to permit faster schedules
. . . and 500 grade crossings were eliminated or provided
with automatic protection.
These improvements, plus heavier tonnage on both
cars and trains, account for The Milwaukee Road's
present ability to double its load. Aided by the co-oper-
ation of business and government shippers, its
35,000 loyal, determined employees are ably
handling their tremendous responsibilities.
The Milwaukee Road and the other
railroads constitute one of our vital war industries
