"I'm proud to work with 'em!" We're rollin' on to victory!
Cartoon-style home-front poster: a smiling railroad worker in overalls and a 'V' cap gives a thumbs-up in front of three locomotives with human faces that salute him, under the quote 'I'm proud to work with 'em!'. The ordinary working man is the speaker (plain-folks) and the saluting engines present rail work as service to the war effort (transfer).
