I see that even back then, someone had to misuse an apostrophe!🙁

doubt it. Freight cars just had the road name / initials and
a number until the Burlington Route herald appeared on them,
in about 1884/5. There is a photo taken at Plattsmouth in
1885 on page 46 of Burlington Bulletin 25 showing some cars
with the herald. Perhaps someone has an earlier one.
I’ve attached part of a Library of Congress photo of Aurora
in the 1880’s and none of the cars have logos.

Archie and Rupert, thanks so much for the
replies and especially for the photos. I still hope someone
will know whether that logo was ever used on rolling stock
too.
