The Great Overland Rail Route -- June 21, 2019


An ad from the second month of transcontinental service.  Central Pacific passengers had to change trains at Promontory Summit.  Union Pacific hauled them from there to Omaha.  A trip from Sacramento to New York, which would require two more changes, took seven days and about 12 hours.
