the Burlington. Everybody has.
Nevertheless you will be surprised
When you see the train. It's a wonder,
and that diner is immense: the meals
cannot be excelled; the neatness of
the napery, courteous walters, cleanli-
ness and service in general are ap-
petizers. The improvements in track
have made the Burlington almost
noiseless. You can sleep in a sleeper,
dine in a diner, smoke in a smoker,
