    Description

    Southern Railway was a leading regional railroad, serving the Southeastern US from the District of Columbia to Louisiana and from Missouri and Ohio to Florida. Formed in 1894 from a combination of many smaller lines, it existed until it merged in 1982 with the Norfolk & Western Railway to form Norfolk Southern. For auction is a LOT of 4 luggage tags. These date from the 1960s and were provided to riders on Southern's passenger trains. The tags measure appx 8 1/2 inches end to end, 2 inches across the large part, and 1 inch across the small part. The "caution" note can be removed and reversed to provide a space for the rider to write his/her name and address. These were permanent tags, and once snapped and locked could not be removed.
