since my layout probably won't have a custom made engine or anything for awhile. i don't need a slogan now but i like this one "If it goes by this rail, it'll be sure to get there" sounds kind of cool.

"We'll get it there, if we can. Take it or leave it, semi-trucks don't come here."

I'm thinking about something like "Preservation is our top priority", but then again, how can I come up with a motto for a RR that re-powered an old CNW Erie-Built and added a Head-end power system to allow it to work with preserved bilevel commuter cars!

Here in Britain a few year ago, the company that keeps the tracks and stations in order was spending a lot of taxpyers money on improvements.

They actually really had a billboard poster that had a picture of a station and the slogan; WE DON'T STOP A STATIONS.

Absolute genius.

Obviously, what they meant was that they were improving more than just the stations but it could so easily be taken the wrong way and caused a lot of amusement at the time.

" When it absolutely, positively doesn't have to get there at all"

or

"When you need rail service real bad, we have real bad rail service"

or

"It's not just our trains of thought that get derailed"

I'm still not sure which one I'm going to use.[:)]

Though my RR is still in the building process most of everything is planned. However the one thing I am still missing is a slogan, something I will need when I decide to get decals for the MESS.

So I'm curious, and so I don't inadvertantly copy someone else's slogan. What's your RR's Slogan?
