Railroads Now Association of American Railroads Date Unknown - between 1970 and 1980. 20 pages
Somewhere in the United States this morning a man woke to the ringing of his alarm clock.
He stumbled in the darkness until he switched on the electric lights.
Perhaps he was cold and turned up the heat. Perhaps he was warm and turned up the air conditioning.
He showered, dressed, then sat down to a breakfast of ham and eggs. He read his morning newspaper while he ate.
Then he got in his car and drove to work.
Chances are he never thought about the railroads during all this time- not even once.
He didn't need to. There was no reason.
But if his lights hadn't gone on ... or if the heat hadn't worked . . . or if he had had no ham and eggs to eat . . . or if his paper hadn't been at the front door ... or if he had had no car ...
He might have thought of the railroads then- because the absence of these everyday, taken-for-granted things would have meant the railroads weren't on the job.
America's railroads are on the job, of course. And they'll stay on the job-now and in the years ahead. More than that, the railroads are doing everything they can to see to it that this greatest of all rail systems in the world not only survives as a private enterprise but also grows and improves.
There's a lot of nostalgic romance associated with railroading, and railroaders are proud of their industry's history. But the purpose of this brochure is to give you some insight into the romance and dynamics of modern railroading-of railroads NOW!
