TIES magazine is the journal of the Southern Railway Historical Association and is the namesake of the Southern Railway company magazine. It uses the title and cover color and format of the original; permission for the use of the above plus both Southern's old "Arrow" emblem and the newer circular emblem were granted to SRHA by the Norfolk Southern Corporation. SRHA is proud that the name, TIES, was given SRHA by NS to guarantee that it would live to help preserve the memory of the Southern Railway for future generations of historians and fans.

The various discussions below concerning Union Pacific's enforcement of its trademark rights raises a similar issue concerning use of logos or other trademarks from "fallen flags".To what extent are railroad historical and technical societies working to help preserve and protect their favorite road's emblems, etc.?I know, for example, that the Southern Railway Historical Association has worked closely with Norfolk Southern Corporation to obtain rights to use various old Southern Railway insignia. From the Association's webpage: Quote: TIES magazine is the journal of the Southern Railway Historical Association and is the namesake of the Southern Railway company magazine.

What are other societies doing along these lines?Alan Maples

NHRHTA, the New Railroad historical group, made a deal with the coporate successor of the New Haven RR many years ago for usage of various NHRR logotypes.Dave

Hi All! In 2001, I was granted permission by American Premier Underwriters to use any and all logo’s of the New York Central and the Pennsylvania Railroads' and their successors for the Western New York Railway Historical Society. The Logo’s can be used on both our website ( www.wnyrhs.org ) and our newsletter the “Railway Flyer.” It was just a few back and forth documents that needed to be signed and it was done. Amtrak is the only operation that has not granted use of any of their trademarks. Sincerely, Scott H.
