Greetings. I was just flipping thru some old magazines I came into and found a railroad slogan quiz by Kent Day Coes in the May 1947 Trains Magazine. I thought it might be fun to post them here for some fun. Post what you know. See if you can get them without searching the internet for the answers. There are 35 questions. As they are correctly answered, I'll post more and post the correct answer along with the first responder with the correct answer.
