Burlington Northern 1979 Calendar

BN’s 1979 calendar fit the same Union Pacific format used in 1978, but instead of hiring commercial photographers, the railway relied on an employee photo contest to illustrate each month. To commemorate this, the company added a cover which (like UP calendars of the 1950s and 1960s) added four pages to the publication. Unlike UP’s calendars, BN wasted the opportunity provided by those extra four pages.

The front cover looks distinguished enough with its hand lettering (instead of a computer typeface), but why did they choose to print it in brown? It’s a very nice shade of brown, but still, brown is boring. As we will see tomorrow, the company rectified this mistake on the 1980 calendar. Continue reading

Burlington Northern 1978 Calendar

For most of the 1960s, Great Northern and Northern Pacific issued annual calendars that had all months on one sheet topped by a large photo or painting. Some were about 20’x26″, but the big ones were about 26″x42″. Burlington Northern followed this tradition for several years after the railroads merged.

Then, for 1978 the railroad changed its format. In a starling display of unoriginality, the new format was almost exactly like Union Pacific’s: each page was 12-1/2″ by 23″, printed on 46″ paper folded in half. Like UP calendars of the 1970s, this one has twelve pages, one for each month. Like UP calendars, the back of January wasn’t February but July (but I’ve resorted the pages in the correct date order).

Burlington Northern 1972 Calendar

For 1972, BN’s graphics department creatively put all of the months in one column, leaving room for a portrait-style photograph on the right. I’m not sure what message BN intended to send when it made the background black, but it certainly is dramatic. This is one of the large (26″x42″) calendars, so I made the PDF with a camera, not a scanner.

The photo shows a BN train on former Burlington tracks in Wyoming’s Wind River Canyon. Burlington was a wonderful railroad with more streamliners and more dome cars than anyone else, yet it didn’t really have a lot of dramatic scenery unless you count the Mississippi River between Chicago and the Twin Cities. The Wind River Canyon was an exception and often appeared in company photos. Burlington ran a heavyweight passenger train on this route called the Shoshone until 1967 and never did run a regularly scheduled streamlined train through the canyon. Continue reading

Burlington Northern 1971 Calendars

For several years after the GN-NP merger, Burlington Northern continued to issue large (26″x42″) calendars with all months shown on one page. The only real innovation for its first calendar was to put the photo in the middle instead of the top of the page. The color photo, which was taken near the Cascade Rapids (now inundated by Bonneville Dam) after which the Cascade Mountains were named, clearly illustrates why BN called the color it painted its locomotives Cascade green.

Like its main merger partners (Burlington being a nearly wholly owned subsidiary of GN and NP), BN also issued a smaller version of the same calendar. I mentioned a few days ago that if they wanted the smaller calendar to be an exact duplicate of the larger one in miniature, the smaller one would have to be 16″x26″ instead of the 20″x26″ size used by GN and NP. That’s exactly what BN did, so the above calendar is 16″x26″. Continue reading

Northern Pacific 1970 Calendar

Northern Pacific’s last calendar before the BN merger featured a painting of General Electric U33C locomotives, a more advanced and higher-powered version of the U25C shown on the 1967 calendar. This is one of the big (26″x42″) calendars, so it is a photo rather than a scan.

The painting is signed Mayo Olmstead (1925-2004), who did illustration work for a number of companies including Beechcraft, General Mills, and Allis-Chalmers. He did pin-up calendars for Brown & Bigalow, covers for Wheaties boxes, and magazine and paperback illustrations. In 1970 he was living in St. Paul, so it is likely that this painting was commissioned by Northern Pacific rather than General Electric.

Northern Pacific 1968 Calendars

I have both the 20″x26″ and 26″x42″ versions of the 1968 calendar and they have the same differences from one another as the 1966 calendars: the photos are cropped differently and the typefaces used on the smaller calendar are wider so they take less vertical room.

The locomotive in the photo is an SD45, the same model that was on Great Northern’s 1967 calendar. Although Northern Pacific received its first of this model in 1966, the unit shown in the photo wasn’t delivered until July 1967, so might be considered appropriate for a 1968 calendar.

Northern Pacific 1967 Calendar

For 1967, Northern Pacific’s calendar featured a painting commissioned by General Electric showing off its U25C locomotive, a six-axle version of the 2500-horsepower U25B. As an advertisement for the locomotive, it was rather late, as the lead locomotive shown in the picture had been delivered in early 1964 and General Electric stopped making this model in 1965.

Northern Pacific 1966 Calendars

The ratio of 42 inches to 26 inches is much bigger than the ratio of 26 inches to 20 inches. In today’s digital world, NP’s (and GN’s) smaller calendars would be exact duplicates in miniature of the big calendars, which would make them more like 16″x26″. But in the 1960s, everything on the smaller calendars had to be laid out separately anyway, so it probably made more sense to use conventional paper sizes than to try to make the calendars match.

Today I have copies of both the smaller and larger versions of the 1966 calendars. The top and bottom of the photo as shown on the big calendar has been cropped off for the smaller calendar.

Northern Pacific 1965 Calendar

Having featured the Seattle World’s Fair on its 1962 calendar, the company’s sort-of centennial on its 1963 calendar, and the North Coast Limited in 1964, NP no doubt felt it was time to get back to the railway’s bread and butter, which was freight. The freight train on this calendar is at least in a scenic area west of Missoula, Montana.

Northern Pacific 1964 Calendar

Starting some time in the 1930s, Northern Pacific produced an annual calendar that displayed the entire year on one page. In the early years, the tops of the calendars simply had a Northern Pacific logo, but starting in 1955 other figures were used, including the Leslie Ragan painting of the vista-dome North Coast Limited in 1955; a stewardess in 1956; the anonymous painting of the vista-dome in 1958; and a boxcar in 1959.

For most of the 1960s, the railroad used large photographs or, in a couple of years, paintings. The photos usually showed freight trains, but 1961’s showed cattle grazing in Montana; 1962’s was an artist’s conception of the Seattle World’s Fair; and 1964, shown here, featured the North Coast Limited. This was the only photo of a passenger train to appear on a Northern Pacific calendar. Continue reading
