New Jersey Kiwanis Menu

This menu has separate pages for dinner on June 21, 1929; breakfast, lunch, and dinner on June 22; and breakfast for June 23. It doesn’t say where members of the New Jersey Kiwanis were going, but that isn’t enough meals to go from Chicago to Seattle or back, so we can make a guess that they went to Yellowstone. I have a timetable from 1926 that shouldn’t be too different from the timetables of 1929.

According to that timetable, the North Coast Limited left Chicago at 10:35 am, which means lunch should have been the first meal. The train left St. Paul at 10:55 pm, so breakfast would have been the first meal if the trip started there. Eastbound the train left Seattle at 9:30 am, so again lunch should have been the first meal.

NP’s secondary train at the time had the uninspriring names of the Pacific Express westbound and Atlantic Express eastbound. Such a secondary train would be the likely place for tour groups such as the Kiwanis.

The Pacific Express left Chicago at 6:30 pm, so dinner would have been the first meal. But it arrived in Livingston at 2:40 pm, so if they were going to Yellowstone lunch should have been on the menu. The Atlantic Express left Seattle at 7:30 pm, in time for dinner, but arrived in Livingston at 2:30 am, too early for breakfast.

There’s one other possibility if the Kiwanis were going to Yellowstone. The Pacific Express arrived in Billings at 11:10 am, safely after breakfast but before lunch. Kiwanis members could have changed trains there to a Burlington train to the Cody entrance of Yellowstone Park. Inconveniently, that train left at 2:00 am and arrived in Cody at 7:15 am, but it is likely that the Kiwanis were riding in their own Pullman car which would have been transferred to the Burlington train, giving the travelers a few hours to spend in beautiful downtown Billings.

The cover photo could be any of many rivers in Montana. It looks to me a lot like the Madison River, which is formed from the geysers and hot springs in Yellowstone.

  1. Eastbound on the NCL from Yellowstone looks like the most plausible answer to me. In the 1928 timetable, #2 is out of Livingston at 422pm and into Chicago at 9am the 2nd day.

    The cover photo looks more like the Cascades than Montana to me, but could be a lot of places (if it’s not beside the tracks — if it is, the west side of Stampede is the only thing that looks reasonable to me.)
