EXIF Image Description: Erie Railroad Train Order No 5 Issued at Hornell, NY, on July 5, 1943 [Form 19]

In sorting through a box of miscellaneous donations to the Whippany Railway
Museum I came across and wanted to share
the attached Train Order which was issued on this date in 1943.

I also attach a second Train Order issued in March 1944 which caught my eye
because it was issued on a form imprinted for
the Seaboard Air Line Railway with Seaboard crossed out and Erie Railroad
typed in. Does anyone else recall seeing something
like this before? With World War II raging, was there any coordinated
effort among the railroads to sell/exchange/barter excess
supplies of forms among themselves?
