QUOTE: Originally posted by CShaveRR I know I've seen a swastika logo in connection with the Chicago, Attica & Southern, but it was in a square background, and oriented 45 degrees differently from this one. The CA&S was formed in 1922 with unwanted portions of other railroads (C&EI, primarily), was bankrupt by 1931, and abandoned completely by 1946 (the 1942 date given earlier is when much of the line was given up. I looked for an interurban railway with the "Wabash Valley Route" name, and came up empty-handed. So whatever it was, "Wabash Valley Route" is a nickname.
