The City of Miami required four different railroads to make the 1,500-mile trip between Chicago and Miami, and Illinois Central had the longest segment between Chicago and Birmingham. The trains left Chicago/Birmingham early in the morning and arrived at the other end late in the evening, so IC served breakfast, lunch, and dinner aboard its portion of the route. It’s possible that this menu was also used for dinner on the Florida East Coast on the northbound train.

The back cover of this 1961 menu proudly notes that the Illinois Central was “the only railroad with headquarters in Chicago ever to receive” a grade A certification for its dining cars from the Public Health Service. Of course, a lot of railroads weren’t headquartered in Chicago, but it seems to me that a grade A certificate should be standard and not something to particularly brag about.
The menu offers table d’hôte meals featuring sole, turkey, pork chops, prime rib, or sirloin steak for prices ranging from $3.25 (for the sole; $27.50 today) to $5.75 (for the steak; $49 today). There was also a plate dinner of spare ribs and an omelet or club sandwich with dessert and beverage. The a la carte side listed lots of appetizers, salads, and desserts, but no entrées, so probably didn’t generate many orders.
I used both the “City of Miami” and the “South Wind” between the Midwest and West Palm Beach in the 1960’s. Both ran with about 15 cars during the winter season will a lot of runs sold out. The “City of Miami” had slightly better private rooms, but the “South Wind” had more choices of entrees and were of better quality. The I.C.’s and PRR’s dining cars ran through to Miami, with ACL providing the Florida west coast ones after Jacksonville. Both trains had a Northen Pacific Visa-Dome Sleeping Car with my favorite single accommodation, the Duplex Single Room. The I.C. painted theirs in their own colors, but PRR ran them as is. Fond memories, but not of “rocking” on the “South Wind” over L & N tracks in Alabama. Thanks for the post.
