Here is an ad from the October 1957 issue of Modern Railroads. It shows the container loading crane at Lesperance Street Yard (St Louis). It is the first time I have seen the use of “Modern Pace” with the Mo-Pac letter highlights in any advertising.

The phrase MOdern PACe was apparently used for only a year or two. It appeared on the 1958 card calendar. Does anyone have an advertising piece from a later date with this phrase?
