We’ve seen this photo before on a 1959 lunch menu, but that one wrapped around to the back while this one fills the front cover but does not wrap around. Union Pacific apparently briefly used menus like this for dinners in the dome diners. The menu itself only has five table d’hôte meals and no a la carte side.

I’m actually presenting two menus today. Both have identical covers and nearly identical insides. One is dated August 1958 and one August 1959; the 1958 menu offers disjointed chicken and country gravy as one of its entrées and the 1959 has lamb chops. Except for those two, all of the items on the menus are the same. Even the prices are the same, indicating that UP didn’t think there was much inflation between 1958 and 1959.

As in previous cases when the same photo is used in both wrap-around and non-wrap-around formats, I’m counting this as a separate menu cover. That brings my total count to 137 Union Pacific post-war color-photo menus, of which I have 133 in my collection including one that will be in tomorrow’s post.

The bottom left of the interior of these menus has tiny letters reading “MD 105 & 106 2E-2W 8-5X.” The X is 8 on the 58 menu and 9 on the 59 while the 8 refers to August. The 105 & 106 refer to the train numbers of the City of Portland. The “2E-2W” meant this menu was used on the second night out eastbound and second night out westbound, so people making round trips from, say, Portland to Cheyenne or Cheyenne to Chicago wouldn’t get the same menu in both directions. “MD” probably meant “main diner”; the code on coffee-shop car menus was “CL,” which probably meant “cafe-lunch counter.”

Based on this, the above menu is dated April 1959 and was used on the first night out eastbound (“1-E”) and second night out westbound (“2-W”). In this case, people going from Chicago to Cheyenne and back would get the same menu going both directions. We’ve seen this menu cover before on a 1958 edition.
