Baltimore & Ohio August 1949 Timetable

This timetable is a respectable 52 pages long. Twelve of those pages, however, are full-page ads or cutaway drawings of sleeping car accommodations. The actual timetables fill just 25 pages, including equipment lists but excluding fares, the station index, and list of agents.

The B&O in 1949 operated four trains a day each way between New York (actually Jersey City) and Chicago, four between Jersey City and St. Louis, eight between Jersey City and Washington, two dozen a day between Baltimore and Washington, three a day between Baltimore and Detroit, two a day between Louisville and Detroit, and many more. B&O served a 36-mile branch line between Punxatawney, Pennsylvania (which had fewer than 9,000 residents in 1949) and Indiana, Pennsylvania (fewer than 12,000) with two trains a day.

The six full-page ads in the front of the timetable (the above image is the back cover) promote passenger service, starting with a description of the strata-dome Columbian. The four pages in back, however, encourage companies to locate their factories and warehouses along the B&O. Many of the ads look like they were reprinted from various magazines. Considering that many of the Santa Fe timetables presented here in the last few weeks had no more than one or two full-page ads (and the “traveler’s editions” had almost no ads), the B&O was pretty extravagant with its advertising.

A printer code on page 51 says B&O printed 85,000 of these timetables. By comparison, Santa Fe printed 365,000 of its traveler’s edition July 1949 timetable. My thanks to Streamliner Memories reader Chris Taylor for contributing scans of this timetable.
