Beginning Sunday, Decem-
Der 18th, a solid through train
from Chicago to Los Angeles
will be placed in service over
The Chicago, Union Pacific &
North Western Line and the
newly opened Salt Lake Route
Is. p, L. A. & S. L. R. r.
The train will be electric
lighted throughout. The sched-
ule time of the new train will
be sixty eight hours, leaving
the Wells Street Station, Chi
cago, every day in the year, at
600 p. M, and arriving at Los
Angeles at l2::45 noon the,
third day.
The equipment is new from
the Pullman shops.
The electric lighting of the
csrs includes berth reading
lamps of the most modern de-
lsiyn, conveniently placed in
e.. a drawing room and section
in the sleeping cars. The COM
posite-observation car and din
! in car is brilliantly lighted,
W; bothcenter and side lamps.
| The equipment includes one
ID section and drawing room
Pullman standard sleeping car
one IL section and drawing
room Pullman standard Sleep
ing car, one Pullman tourist
sleeping car, and a composite
observation car, with buffet
smoking room and booklovers
library, through to Los Angeles
without change.
All meals in dining car, a la
carte service.
The architecture and in erior
finish of each car presents an
unusual richness of effect. The
interior decorations are in
green and gold, the upholstery
is in olive. green plush; the
woodwork in vermillion mahog-
any.
The dining cars are of the
latest design and their equip
ment is the most complete. The
best of chefs, skilled stewards,
experienced walters, and a
menue of the highest character
combine to cater satisfactorily
to the most exacting taste.
Every provision has been
made for the greatest degred
OF comfort and convenience fo{
all classes of travel.
The route of the new trait
is over the only double track
railway between Chicago and
the Missouri River, through
Council Bluffs, Omaha and
Cheyenne to Ogden and Salt
Lake city, and directly across
Southwestern Utah and South
ern Nevada, into the citrus
fruit region of California, pass
ing through San Bernadino, Riv-
erside and Pomona to Los An
gees. This is a new and desirable
routing, and secures to the
traveller the advantages of the
best that can be produced in
railway travel over the pioneer
line from Chicago and the en-
joyment of new scenes and ex-
cellent train service over the
new Salt Lake Road.
Many travellers to Southern
California will doubtless avail
themselves of this routing one
way, returning through the
San Joaquin Valley or up the
coast line of the Southern Pac-
ific toSan Francisco, and thence
east on the Overland limited.
Round trip tourist tickets pro-
vide for this variable routing,
and also for stopovers at Salt
Lake City and at various Cali
fornia points without any extra
charge.
The sleeping car diagrams
for the new train are now open
to the public for reservation of
space.
This new train will arrive in
the Valley from the east about
5 a. m. each morning.
