    Years ago, MP Little Rock restaurant operator Wylie Cavin (himself a former MP dining car inspector) had a large collection of this silver. Markings that he had included “MISSOURI PACIFIC”, “I.& G.N.” and “MO. PAC. & IRON MOUNTAIN.” I have heard that the pattern also came marked for T&P Ry, but I’ve never actually seen that variation so cannot confirm with certainty that it exists.

    This “pagoda style” pattern probably existed for all standard shapes, but is known for certain to exist in the following shapes:

    3 oz sauce boat
    6 oz creamer with lid
    6 oz and 9 oz sugarbowl with lid
    8 oz and 10 oz teapot
    12 oz soup terrine
    butter dish with ice compartment
    scalloped mint (?) dish
