for New Equipment
N SW engines and cars purchased
by the Southern Railway System
since 1920 have coat $80,000,000. The
364 new locomotives, 31,000 new
freight cars, 266 hew passenger train
cars, which have been added to South
ern equipment during the past eight
years are an indication of the extent
of the improvement program that has
been carried on steadily for years.
The Southern, as s consequence or
such large investments, is equipped to
handle the great increases in Southern
commerce which are coming with the
progress of Southern agriculture and
industry.
And as the South’s growth contin
