text: George Washington (train) The George Washington was a named passenger train of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway running on a route between Cincinnati, Ohio and Washington, D.C. It began service in 1932 to mark the 200th anniversary of the birth of the first president of the United States. When the "George Washington" was inaugurated as C&O's top-notch train on April 30, 1932, it was one of only two all-air-conditioned, long-distance trains operating in America. (the other was the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad's "Capitol Limited", which was instituted as an all-air-conditioned train only a week or so before the "George Washington").
