Small job for a big railroad? Indeed not. In
fact, most Of the work we do helps mother and
her family.
Starting with cotton for diapers and winding
up with coal to power the electric generators
that light up the ~television set, we haul every
thing a growing family needs.
This goes for all the families in more than
1000 communities and nearby areas along the
Illinois Central. Perhaps that's why one of
this railroads n~eighbors recently wrote, 1--WE
feel that the Illinois Central is an integral part
of our community and contributes immensely
to the welfare of this section
This is as true today as it was a century ago.
No other form Of transportation hauls every
thing for everybody. The Illinois Central is
truly a common carrier.
Each year we invest a lot of money to i'm
prove our service in the 1000 communities
where we live. In the past 10 years our
Improvements totaled $500 million. This in
vestment is not only for today. It's also for the
future when the wearers of today's baby shoes
become the men and women of Mid-America.
