WE ARE IN OUR 67TH YEAR OF BUSINESS AS A TRANSPORTAWe could gather a nice bouquet of memories, dating from 1876, of transportation and the improvements we have made. We won't. We haven't the time. We are busy planning and doing! new things for a future we see—a future as bright as only Things have been a bit quiet here—but they were in the other wars, too. In fact this slack-off gives us an opportunity to roll up our sleeves and tackle an expansion piogram we've planned. Expansion—Now? Certainly! Here’s wey 4. , war clouds were gathering rapidly. Instead of tearing up the blue: prints These ere trying days. War times always are—we know because we, as a company have seen our United States involved in three major wars.

And we've done businessWhen the war came we were outlining plans to launch the big understaking of switching our. freight. service from steam train to highway service.

We've done this because— WE BELIEVE ABANDONMENT OF STEAM RAILROAD IN FAVOR OF HIGHWAY EQUIPMENT WILL BE OF MORE ADVANTAGE TO YOU! . Through complete switch-over from rail to highway we can give our customers improved service and gretter satisfaction. It worked when we changed rail passenger service to busses. It will work with freight!In making these proposed changes the cities of Grass Valley and Nevada City in no way lose their distinction as railroad-served cities. We are STILL a Railroad company, working under the rules and regulations of the California Railroad Commission and the Interstate Commerce Commission. We STILL maintain our rating and connections with all important transportation companies in California and the nation. We are STILL 2 bonafide company with a very sizeable investment in Nevada County. We ETILU have set schedules to fulfill and rate regulations to obey. Our freight must travel at time specified—whether it’s 1000 pounds or 50 tons. No. waiting for a load—when the clock says “Go”. we go! For those are the railroad rules we go by—far separated from the code of the transient truck operator, the carrier without a port; who purrs from green field to green field, picking his hauls, choosing his time—a foreigner to the definition of “service.”’ It’s our birthday—our 67th year. We aren’t afraid. We are confident—eagerly preparing for days we hope are not too far distant, those days—when the war is over! Nevada County Narrow Gauge Railroad — : _ Nevada County Trucking Co.
