The menu was for the Los Angeles Limited, which went near the park on its journey from Chicago to Los Angeles via Salt Lake City. Union Pacific inaugurated the train in 1905 as the Los Angeles version of the Overland Limited. The train was all Pullmans until about 1930, when the Depression led UP to add coaches.

Half the menu is devoted to beverages, which in this prohibition year all should be non-alcoholic. They include both domestic and imported sarsaparilla, root beer, “cereal beverages,” which probably means low-alcohol beer, and orange and grape juice high balls, which–given no alcohol–probably means sodas.
