Army Navy Game Trains via Pennsylvania Railroad Coffee Mugs by stanrail

From www.mugs.railphotoexpress.biz - The Army – Navy Game, commencing in 1890, has been held at several locations throughout its history, but has most frequently been played in Philadelphia, 81 times, roughly equidistant from the two academies. Historically played on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, the game is now played on the second Saturday in December and is traditionally the last game of the season for both teams . The Pennsylvania Railroad saw this event, with the close proximity of the stadium to its railroad, and the large number of traveling game attendees, as an opportunity to advertize to these potential customers the best the railroad had to offer. There were 38 trains scheduled for the 1936 game and by 1941, a record high 42 trains arrived at the game. During the war years of 1942, 43 & 44, the game was not played in Philadelphia and when it returned in 1945, 8 trains were on the schedule. In 1946, with the country returning to more normal activities, 37 trains were needed. Most Trains were pulled by GG-1Electric Locomotives. ================================== <div style="text-align:center;line-height:150%"><img src="http://rlv.zcache.com/pennsylvania_railroad_annual_report_1960_mousepad-p1448206734154542197pdd_325.jpg" alt="Pennsylvania Railroad Annual Report 1960 mousepad" style="border:0;" />
