Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
...compliments of Milwaukee Road “white coal”
ALIED bombers are raining ruin on the strongholds of the Axis, wrecking war production centers,
transportation facilities, docks and warehouses. Do you
realize that the fuel The Milwaukee Road is conserving
by using “White Coal" may be helping to deal
those devastating blows?
This "White Coal" is electricity from mountain
water power, used for years to move Milwaukee Road
trains across the Rockies, Bitter Roots and Cascades.
How fortunate that this electrification was functioning
with proved efficiency when war came ! It conserves
millions of gallons of oil to help provide America's
ever-growing air armadas with needed flying power!
Milwaukee Road "White Coal" makes it unnecessary
to tie up precious railway equipment in hauling fuel
to our mountain divisions. This means more freight
cars available to help ease the transportation situation.
With a vast network of lines reaching from the
dynamic midwest to the vital ocean ports of the Pacific
northwest, The Milwaukee Road is now handling
a traffic volume never approached before.
Heavy service, of course, is taking a toll of all railroad equipment. But modernized operating methods
-plus the active co-operation of shippers and essential
travelers -enable The Milwaukee Road's 35,000 loyal,
alert employees to do their full share for Victory
Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific
The Milwaukee Road
Electrified over the Rockies to the sea
