This rug is such good quality and makes me so happy every time I look at it. I'm using this one for a top cover over my bedspread. It's a perfect match for my room and linen. I have another that I use as a throw for the lounge and a picnic rug! In LOVE.

The postage was incredibly quick and the quality and colours far exceeded what I thought. The pics don't do them justice. Truly unique rugs that I doubt will date anytime soon. I would recommend - beautiful rug and great customer service.

My husband argued with me saying we didn’t need a new blanket. Once we received this one, he quickly changed his tune. It’s cozy, soft and warm. I love the design and boho vibe it adds to our home. High quality product at an affordable price.

Gulf, Mobile & Ohio Railroad Timeline
Incorporation
1938
The Gulf, Mobile & Ohio was incorporated in 1938 to acquire properties of the Mobile & Ohio and the Gulf Mobile & Northern. The railroad extended between New Orleans, Mobile, and St. Louis.
Merger with the Chicago & Alton
1947
During World War II, the GM&O trimmed some branches and generally tightened up the organization. In 1947, the GM&O merged with the Alton, extending its lines west to Kansas City and north to Chicago and Springfield, Illinois, making the GM&O a Great Lakes-to-Gulf railroad.
The End of Steam Locomotives
October 7, 1949
The Gulf Mobile & Ohio was one of the first major U.S. railroads to dieselize completely, its last steam operations occurring on October 7, 1949. GM&O operated the 'Rebel' trains, the first streamliners in the south, between St. Louis and New Orleans, as well as the 'Gulf Coast Rebel' between St. Louis and Mobile. These lasted until 1954 and 1958 respectively.
The Peak Years
1950's and 1960's
At its peak, the GM&O operated 258 locomotives over 2,734 miles of track in the midwest and south. Some of its most famous name trains were the Ann Rutledge, the Alton Limited, and the Abraham Lincoln.
Merger with the Illinois Central
1972
The colorful red and maroon GM&O colors lasted until its merger with the Illinois Central in 1972.
