The South’s population
is the fastest-growing
in the U.S.
And Southern Railway
is growing right along
with it.
Not only IS the South the
fastest-growing area in the
U S , It s one of the seven tas|fst growing areas m
the wortd And one ot the biggest reasons is that
industry is (tocking to the South
Needless to say we at Southern Railway are
happy about all this because each time the South
grows, we grow too '
After all who do you think carries the raw
materials to these new plants’’ And their finished
goods to market’’In large measure we do
And as the South s population grows who
do you thin k brings the things these people
need7 The cars the carpets the appliances the
clothing, the sporlmg goods and the food’’
Largely we do
But, we re not growing |ust to keep up with
the ever-increasing population We re growing
to be prepared lor an even bpner South ot the
future
Accordingiolhelederalgovernment the
railroads will get an increase
in freight volume ot 143% by
1990 And the railroad s share of market will go
up by a big 24%
Will we get the lions share of these increases
when they come’’ Maybe But whatever happens,
were getting ready for them by expanding right
now Were putting m a new $40 million freight clas
sification yard m Norih Carolina We re adding
to our microwave communication system, which
IS already the largest m the South And we re laying
double track where one used to be enough to
handle the traffic m the area
So even though were growing right along
with you were also growing ahead ot you
Because when the demand is there, we want
to be there ready to serve
