Notes: This pattern is often attributed to an unknown restaurant or to an unknown American rail line. Neither is true. It is a commercial-grade pattern, known to have been made by both Sterling and Homer Laughlin for Fishs Eddy, a New York City retailer for 20 years of new and vintage restaurant china.
