Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
Gone with the wind!
WHEN A FREIGHT CAR rolls down the
“hump" at our new $14 million Citico Yard
at Chattanooga, Tennessee, even its wind
resistance i8 automatically measured.
While the car is rolling, a radar device
instantly picks up and evaluates all the
factors that affect its rollability-weight,
speed, size, wind, weather and others. Then
the magic brain of an electronic computer
regulates the retarder brake in the track
under the moving car so that it will couple
safely and gently to another car standing
far down in the yard below.
This is a new kind of railroading. You’ll
see it at work in countless ways on the
Southern today-at Citico, and in our other
multi-million dollar push-button yards
at Knoxville, Tenn. and Birmingham Ala.
And still another ultra-modem electronic
yard to cost $15 million is now under
construction at Atlanta, Ga.
Yesteryear railroading is “gone with the
wind" on the Southern. Today's modern rail-
roading means dependable, ever-improving
transportation for the fast-growing area
we serve.

A great Vintage Ad!
You pick your frame color, and you pick your mat color. We will mat and frame your Vintage Ad per your request and send it to you promptly. All you have to do is remove it from the box and hang it on the wall in your home, office, garage, man cave, or showroom!
We mat and frame original, vintage magazine ads...they are in good condition, but may not be perfect as they are many decades old. Frame outside dimensions are 15" x 12", and matted ad is approximately 9-5/8" x 6-5/8" (could be slightly different, depending on ad).
Frames and vintage ads are actual as shown, and mat is computer generated for online viewing. Actual mat is custom cut for each individual ad and mat color will be similar to the colors shown on the website. “Travel Route 3 Scan” watermark is placed on the ad for online viewing only, and is not part of the final product. Back side of Vintage Ad is glued to backing paper so that it continues to display flat over time. Here is what you will receive:
- New frame
- New mat
- New glass
- Vintage Ad
