Description
Full color 4 3/4″ x 13 1/2″ ad for their Olympian Hiawathas which was a service between Chicago and the Pacific Northwest. The headline under a drawing of a comfortable car with tables and a bar is the statement claiming to be “Timed for your most glorious Vacation”. The text explains that post-war production of equipment is coming along but they didn’t want to wait for everything new so ten cars out of the twelve on each train will be new. As soon as available the two distinctive, new, all-room cars will be added to the trains replacing the cars currently being used. It then mentions the diesel-powered engines and the wonderful views of nature to be seen on each journey.
