To All: Here are some more Fallen Flag Heralds. Photo#1--The Milwaukee & Northern became part of the Milwaukee Road. Photo#2--The Dayton & Western is a defunct electric line that was in Ohio. Photo#3--The East Troy is a defunct electric line that was in Wisconsin, but is still active as a Heritage Road. Photo#4--The Detroit Terminal is now part of Conrail Assets. Photo#5--Can anyone fill me in on this defunct railroad? I can find no info. Photo#6--The W&OD is an abandoned electric line. I hope these Heralds inspire you to apply them to your rolling stock.

Saint Paul Southern

Hello,

Well, assuming we're talking the same railroad, the Saint Paul Southern was an electric interurban that ran from a connection with the Twin Cities (Minneapolis/Saint Paul, MN) Trolley system in/near Inver Grove, MN and went south to Hastings, MN. Passenger only, didn't run for long. Paralleled too many steam roads and not enough passenger revenue to offset construction costs and loan payments.

Oh, forgot to mention - most of the pictures I have seen with this logo have this a little... different. White lettering, NOT outlined, just the lettering AS a circle on the side of a car, but the logo as you drew it is the "official" logo.
