Santa Fe February 1926 Timetable

This timetable came out nearly 13 years later than yesterday’s, but followed a similar format: condensed timetables in the beginning, then eight pages of maps, followed by detailed timetables. Like yesterday’s and all of the Santa Fe timetables that will be presented in the next month, this one is from scans donated by the Streamliner Memories reader who also donated most of October’s Union Pacific timetables and all of the Southern Pacific timetables presented here since then, to whom we are all grateful.
