Best railroad slogans?

[railroadyoshi]

Vermont and South Troy; VAST

Think Fast, Ship VAST

Thanks to TrainFreak409 for helping me finally come to a decision. 

[Teditor]

For my Shalvey Central Railroad, I use "Gateway to the Imagination".

I think it came from 'Gateway through the Rockies' (Rio Grande?)

On the Seneca Lake, Ontario, & Western (registered pike with the NMRA), call letters SLOW, our slogan is: "We'll Get There Sooner or Later"

Hmmm, that must be a common theme for free lance railroads.  I've heard it before.  Perhaps the "Southern Arizona & Douglas".

[Gandy Dancer]

I like the RailBox slogan,but I forgot how it goes.

That would be "Next Load Any Road"

[Gandy Dancer]

Denver & Rio Grande Western: Scenic Line Of The World

This would be the one!

My second would probably be "Ship and Travel Santa Fe all the Way"

It is a pitty the Q didn't live up to their "Everywhere West".  They could have. 

[RedGrey62]

Gotta go with what I model, "Everywhere West" and "Route of the Zephyrs".  But the DT&I had a pretty good one too....."We have the CONNECTIONS"

I like the RailBox slogan,but I forgot how it goes.

[lvanhen]

As bb4884 said, "Be Specific - Ship Union Pacific"  - or - "Route of the Streamliners"!!

[jwar]

Western Pacific "WP" The railroad of Willing people, of which most of the employees just before the UP buy out, changed to "WP The road of Worried People"

[pandabear]

Gotta agree with Brakie on "Everywhere West," but I think UP's "We can handle it" was pretty good, too.

[DavidBriel]

 Thanks for Using Coast Line and The Route of Courteous Service.  These are ACL and SAL slogans.

[SOU Fan]

shawnee,

You hit the nail on the head. "Southern serves the South" and will forever.

[kursinsky]

"Expressway for Industry" - Detroit & Toledo Shoreline

[oscaletrains]

im just playing with one on my version of trainz 2006

its a freelance design too

BOULDER CREEK AND SOUTHERN The coal hauling road!

[howmus]

On the Seneca Lake, Ontario, & Western (registered pike with the NMRA), call letters SLOW, our slogan is: "We'll Get There Sooner or Later"

[Mark R.]

I gotta go with - "The Bridge Line to New England and Canada"

Mark.

[GAPPLEG]

  Mine is simple , tells me where I'm at and what I'm doing.

To me, The Route of Phoebe Snow and Nickel Plate Road are two really cool slogans, but LIRR's Route of the Dashing Commuter really puts a picture in my head.

[potlatcher]

I would find it hard to beat "Mainstreet of the Northwest" - the slogan for the Northern Pacific.  Only four words to tell where it went and how important it was to the region it served.  In fact, the NP's #2 passenger train (behind the North Coast Limited) was called "The Mainstreeter".

[IRONROOSTER]

I always like the Lackawanna's The Route of Phoebe Snow

Enjoy

Denver & Rio Grande Western: Scenic Line Of The World

That had a great logo emblem to go with the words.

My favorite was a line that never had a slogan, but the employees and patrons sure pegged it.

Nevada County Narrow Gauge RR, the NCNG, or as it was known

"Never Comes, Never Goes"

[BRAKIE]

Southern-Southern Serves The South.Southern Gives A Greenlight To Innovations.

CB&Q-Everywhere West.

SL-SF-Ship IT On The Frisco!

C&O-C&O For Progress.

B&O-Linking 13 Great States To The Nation.

RF&P-Linking North & South.

Santa Fe-Santa Fe All The Way!

And of course my very own:

Columbus & Hocking Valley Ry-Serving the Industries of the Hocking Valley.

[bb4884]

Be specific: Ship Union Pacific

[shawnee]

LIRR...best slogan I never heard of before. 

Best unauthorized local nickname?  Winchester & Western,  "the Weak N' Weary".

[jeffrey-wimberly]

KCS

Ride the Southern Belle
Route of the Flying Crow
Route of the Southern Belle
Look, Listen and Live

Denver & Rio Grande Western: Scenic Line Of The World

[MisterBeasley]

I grew up with the Long Island Railroad outside of NYC.  Not much freight, but they sure moved people.  It's still known as the "Route of the Dashing Commuter."  Here's the logo I remember, featuring "Dashing Dan:"

 

Today, though, things have changed.  I think this is "Dashing Dot:"

[rayw46]

How about L&N's, "The Old Reliable."  Whenever I see or hear it I'm reminded of the bloodhound in, "Lady and the Tramp."  Weird.

[markpierce]

"The Friendly Southern Pacific"

 

Mark

[jaytrix]

Route of the Rockets would be my choice.

This was a cool site that listed the slogans.  I thought it was interesting.
