Set of eight Missouri Pacific Railroad ("Mo-Pac") year poster-size calendars, from 1975 to 1983. No 1976 calendar. Printed on thick cardboard stock, measuring 25 3/4" x 32". The graphics on these present as big and bold in lettering and illustration, advertising rail, truck, and airfreight transportation. Imperfections include staining, edgewear, marks/scuffs, Manufacturer hole for mounting on most, no other visible holes. Most significant visible marring is due to water staining. Owing to wide borders and large graphics, some marks/edgewear would be mitigated by framing. 

Set of three unique unused Missouri Pacific and Union Pacific paper Dispatcher's Records, used for recording train movement through route subdivisions, and set of five actual-use records for Missouri Pacific "Northern Division" from 1980, '83, and 1987. These are paper, measuring approx. 47 3/4" x 23". The unused ones are in very good condition, with light staining; the used ones show considerable wear, tear, edgewear, rips, wrinkles, binder hole tears. These are handwritten in blue/black/red, with margin notes and filled-in notes and numbers. Interesting glimpse into a working railroad process!
