Description
The "Spring maid" is an iconic logo for the Lancaster and Chester Railroad that first ame to prominence in the 1940s when the railroad under the help of Elliott White Springs applied it to their rolling stock. Upon dieselization of the motive fleet, the logo soon adorned all locomotives owned by the railroad.
The Springs family sold the railroad in 2010 to the Gulf & Ohio Railways and the fear was the logo, the slogan and the L&C blue paint would fade from memory. But the new owners kept all three. The engines in the background all wear the maid on the side of the long hoods!
