Trail of the Olympian 1930

Here is the 1930 edition of the booklets from 1913 and 1925 that we saw a few days ago. This one has a much more attractive front cover than the 1925 edition, but the interior pages are not as nicely printed. The photographs are a bit muddy, and the slight sepia tone makes them look a little washed out.

Unlike the previous editions, which were copyrighted in the name of the St. Paul road’s passenger traffic manager, this one has no copyright. It has nearly the same text on pages 5 and 6 as the 1925 edition with only a few minor changes. Continue reading

Grand Canyon • Zion • Bryce by C&NW

Here’s another in the same series of booklets shown in the last four days that is probably modeled on a prewar Union Pacific booklet. Though this one is dated 1951, the same as yesterday’s about Yellowstone, it has some significant updates from whatever was probably included in the older UP booklet.

Yellowstone by Chicago & North Western

Unlike the booklets from last three days, we’ve haven’t seen this one before. But since it advertises a region accessed by Union Pacific, no doubt there is a version with Union Pacific’s name on the cover instead of C&NW. Also unlike the previous three, this one is dated 1951 instead of 1947.

Scenic Features and Commercial Advantages

In the nineteenth century, railroads were more interested in attracting settlers to the regions they served so they would have some customers for goods the settlers grew, made, or needed. By the twentieth century, railroad advertising was transitioning to focus on scenic wonders and vacation paradises. This 1909 booklet is from the transition period so advertises both scenery and the potential for settlement, but the emphasis is definitely on the latter.

Slightly more than the first half of the booklet discusses the production of fruit, grain, vegetables, livestock, timber, and minerals, though the text is interspersed with photos of waterfalls, rivers, and other scenery. Much of the remainder discusses the Columbia Gorge, scenic waterways, and the region’s major cities. Continue reading

The Streamlined 400

Using steam locomotives and heavyweight cars, the Chicago & Northwestern introduced the 400 in 1935 to compete with the Burlington Twin Zephyrs on the Chicago-Twin Cities route. In 1939, it re-equipped the train with Diesels and streamlined cars.

Trail of the Olympian 1925

The 1925 edition of Trail of the Olympian was substantially different from yesterday’s 1913 edition. The bright yellow covers were replaced with a dreary brown that attempted to feature the electrification that had taken place between the two editions. Inside, the title page illustration of a waterfall was replaced with the railway’s logo.

Trail of the Olympian 1913

The Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway produced this booklet, or one like it, for about 20 years. The earliest I have seen was from 1911; the latest from 1930. The booklets had 34 black-and-white photos that tended to change over the years. It is likely that the railroad charged a small price, say 25 or 50 cents (about $7 to $14 in today’s money), but there are no prices on the booklets I have seen.
