Mr. Harding, where did you get the information as to where the plants were located? Is there a book(now ‘site’) that lists company info? We have source/info books for railroads ie ‘The Official

In images 2 & 3, is that a woman out there in the yard? What is she doing there? This was not a time when women were common in the yards. Schuyler

 Hi Doug, Any idea on a date for the Cudahy map you attached? Thanks Claus Schlund

So now I'm confused. There was Cudahy Packing Company of Omaha which also made & sold Old Dutch Cleanser. There was also Cudahy Brothers which was also a packing company in Cudahy Wis. south of

doug: thanks for the background, since the cars have a different scheme, my question is, dud cudahy ever have a scheme, that had "old dutch" on one side of the car, and the."cudahy" on the other side

Eric; What on Gd’s green earth was Hunt’s and catsup? I don’t recognize either of those things. There was never anything but Heinz in our households. Yes, we also loved Clark Bars (I

Great info Ken. Thanks for posting it. I find it interesting that more cars were wrecked on what I have long called the Standard Scrapyard of the World than on the next two railroads on which a large
