Railroad Roman 1916 is an old-fashioned typeface created by E. V. Norat II in 1916. It is considered to be an interpretation of early American typography from the first decades of the 20th century that can be found on locomotives, rail cars, and even railway station signs across North America. This typeface is characterized by chunky slab forms, medium stroke contrast and gentle notches, which gives it an industrial look.
