ROYAL BLUE TRAINS.

In september last, railway officials
, from London were sent to America, to
get IDEAS on the railway passenger
service of the leading lines in this
country, and in their official report,
which was printed in the London
lines In January, it was stated that
the Royal Blue Line" series of mag
! nlhcent passenger trains, running be-
tween New York, Philadelphia, Balti-
i, more and Washington, lead the world
tor quick and exquisite train service.
The Royal Blue Line" service con-
slSts OF nine elegant passenger trains
| day In each direction between the
cities named above. They are the
fDest and fastest trains in the world.
Their equipment was built especially
for the service by the Pullman Com
pany, and includes every modern con-
venlence known for the comfort of
passengers. The trains are vestibuled
from end to end, and hauled by the
strongest and fastest locomotives in
the United States.
The exquisite day coaches of these
trains are worthy Of special note.
They are beautifully upholstered,
each containing a washroom and
SHloNluS compartment.
The parlor cars are the most pala-
tlal ever built, being fully seventy
three feet long. In addition to this
service, three new parlor cars were
added In April, and are the first of
this kind ever run; they are richly up
holstered and ornamented throughout
in most beautiful designs. A ladies'
retiring-room is provided in one end
of the car. This room, which is six
feet square, is furnished with beauti-
full dresser with large mirror and
number of drawers. On each side of
1t are upholstered corner seats In an
other corner is bookcase and station
ary waShStand The room was de-
signed for especial comfort of ladies,
who have always claimed men mad the
best Of it when travelling. The usual
smoking apartment, however, is at the
opposite end of the car.
The dining cars are operated by the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company,
and especial attention is gwen to the
| menu. Every delicacy is served in
season, and the service is unsurpassed.
In addition to the already perfect
service of "Royal Blue Trains" men,
toned above, there will be put into
service May IS Royal Limited"
train, which will leave New York at 90
P. NJ, making the run to Washington
in FIVE hours. Returning, the "Roy-
al Limited will leave Washington at
! 800 P. NJ, arriving New York at $40
| P Nj. The "Royal Blue Line" will
then boast of three trains which make
this extraordinary fast time between
Washington and New York, which
| has never been attained by any other
line The Royal Blue Trains" be-
| tween Baltimore and Washington
make the run i'll FORTY-FIVE MIN
y TES-the fastest regular service ever
! attained between the two cities.
The terminal at New YORK City is
the most convenient for all points in
