Man with a 32 'track mind
He's moved upstairs . . . this Southern
Railway yardmaster!
Yesterday he ran his legs off in all kinds
of, weather trying to be all over his yard at
once. Today he sits in a glass-enclosed, air
conditioned tower sixty feet above the ground
. . . acres of tracks spread out before him.
Through the magic of electronics he gives
orders and instructions to switching crews
and others throughout the yard . . . and the
men can report back to him over this two-way communi
cating system... thus speeding the "making up" into trains
of as many as 5,000 freight car* a day.
Progress? You bet!
Always on the alert for new method* . . . never taking
anything for granted . . . we're doing our beat to provide
the kind of mass transportation service that ia so vital to
the continued growth and prosperity of the South.
Whether it's pioneering with the first Diesel freight
locomotive or building a tower for the "man with a 32
track mind," the Southern Railway ia... and will continue
to be ... a railway that is always looking for, and finding,
better waya to "Serve the South."

"This U our aim: To walk in
faith with our brothtrs in
arm*. To achieve such a goal
we must have the interest, ac
tivity and support of every eli
gible veteran in order that we
can accomplish the most good
for the most people in the years
