And yet it advertises Pullman 16-wheel sleeping cars which were gone by 1880 at the latest!

Coincidently, the logo/herald is used on a poster offered on eBay again today, described as from the 1890’s.

Rupert:

 

I assume you got that one in color from eBay where it is being offered as a weathered sign with the line "Toluca, Mont.-Cody, Wyo. Line" beneath it, which you have wisely cropped off, since that line was not built until 1901, when the rectangular herald had been in use for 16 years.  But its similarity to the version in the 1879 Railway Age leads me to believe it was in fact used by the company at some point, likely around 1880, though I've never seen it on anything from that period.  But the people selling it certainly didn't create it themselves, though they may have added the color.
