AND
TRAIN SERVICE
To Atlantic CITY via Pennsyl-
vania R. II.

The outlook for the summer season
at Atlantic City was never So pro
missing as 1t is at present, and the
prosperous City by the Sea was
never in SO good a condition for
entertaining and amusing its summer
guests Entertainment in the sense
of affording food and shelter IS all
that is required of the Atlantic City
people, Nature furnishes the rest,
and she lays sea and sand, sky and
wind under tribute to aid IN accom-
plishing her purpose. The great
Seaside City of summer pleasure. re
sourreful as 1t is III all that is attract
i've and beneficial on sea and land,
coul never attain to its high stand
ard of popularity if Natures ally, tEo
railroad, did not lend its efficient aid
III rendering access SO easy that the
average traveller counts the trip as
nothing.
The facilities afforded bv the Penn
svlvania Railroads seashore branches
Will be greatly improved for the
coming season. They have always
been maintained on a scale of lib..r-
ality unapproached by those enjoyed
by any other watering place, but n
progressive spirit Will. this summer,
be manifested in many and striking
Improvements. The summer scha-
dule will go into effect on June 29th,
and it will present service of trains
superior in unmber, speed, and
equipment to that of any previous
wear. The roadway of both tie
West Jersey and Camden and Allan
tic roads have been reballasted and
relaid in many portions in anticipa-
ton of an improved, accelerated, ana
increased service, so that the new
schedule Will find both of the Penn
sylvania's Atlantic City lines in prime
physical condition. Alarger number
Of express trains Is promised, and
the very quick time of transit hereto
fore made between the Delaware and
the ocean Will be materially reduced
An innovation, which hard-working
business men will appreciate and tie
residents of suburban towns and
neighboring cities Will find most con
venient, is a late evening train from
Philadelphia 1t is proposed th;.t
this train shall leave Philadelphia
about $50 Z. NJ, after all the after
noon connections are In and all bust
ness is over, and arrive in Atlantic
City for late supper. 1t will un-
prove popular movement,
and Will oftentimes save much hurry
and annoyance. Another new feature
will be late train up, leaving At
lantic City at 1870 p. NJ. for Phila-
delphia, enabling visitors to spend |
the evening with friends and return
the same night. Other fast trains
viii run at convenient hours of the
day in both directions, Sd that every
one may find leaving and arriving
hour to his taste.
Two new trains of considerable
have been added to the
schedule within the past week-one
an early morning train, designed to
deliver the newspapers III Atlantic
City before breakfast, and the other
IN early train up for the accommo-
lation of those who would be in
before nine o'clock.
The equipment of the summer ,
trains will be greatly improved by
he use of new coaches and by the
of new Altoona bull;
Parlor Cars, such as are run between
New York and Washington, for the
I'D Woodruff Parlor Cars that the
march of progress has lef. behind.
With these superior facilities, and
he advantages offered by centrally
ocated station easily accessible from
III portions of the city, and in direct
with Broad Street Station,

ylvania Railroad holds out to its
the strongest Inducements
