Engine of war. "Our railroads are essential to our nation's capacity to make war. That was proved in World War I and has become again overwhelmingly evident in this war. They must be sustained by the American people with full appreciation that they are vital to us and must always be prepared to go into action to make effective the might of the United States." C.P. Gross, Major General, Chief of Transportation, United States Army
