Tonquin Valley and Lake Maligne Menus

Posted on January 5, 2021 by Train LoverDecember 1, 2020

The Tonquin Valley holds Lake Amethyst surrounded by spectacular mountains, but it was probably seen by few Jasper Lodge visitors in 1951 because it required a hike of at least seven miles each way, not counting the miles of hiking to explore the valley once people got there. There are some backcountry lodges in the valley, at least one of which offers horseback trips from the trail heads, but the thought of all day on horseback probably also discouraged many people.

This is a breakfast menu, so we’ve seen it before. It offered five different kinds of fish plus the usual meat and egg dishes. For once the photo registration appears to be correct. Continue reading →

Jasper Golf Course Menus

Posted on January 4, 2021 by Train LoverDecember 1, 2020

These menus show the “6th green, and beyond, No. 10 fairway” of the Jasper golf course. In 2020 Golf Digest rated this course the eighth best in Canada, slightly edging out Banff, which is number nine. Of course, both are owned by Fairmont, which probably doesn’t care which is ranked highest as long as both are highly ranked.

The lunch menu is dated August 5, 1951, so it is the same as yesterday’s. The dinner menu is also dated August 5, which we haven’t seen before. Continue reading →

Main Lodge Menus

Posted on January 3, 2021 by Train LoverDecember 1, 2020

Here are Jasper Lodge menus showing people enjoying the lawns around the main lodge. The print registration is slightly off on these menus, though the problem is not as noticeable as it was on yesterday’s menus.

The lunch menu, which is dated August 5, 1951, offers eggs Benedict, halibut, trout, chicken mixed grill, veal, roast beef, cold salmon, chef’s salad, and another salad. Each meal came with the usual accompaniments but no salad, which is why two salads were included among the entrées. Continue reading →

Athabasca Glacier Menus

Posted on January 2, 2021 by Train LoverMarch 23, 2023

We’ve previously seen Jasper Park Lodge menus from 1935 and 1940 and we’ve seen this particular photo on a menu from 1948. These two from 1951 show the lodge used the same format over at least three different decades.

The photograph shows a part of the Columbia Icefield, which wasn’t accessible to tourists in 1935. The photos in both the above breakfast menu and the below dinner menu are poorly reproduced with one of the colors being slightly offset from the others. While such a mistake would be unacceptable in an advertising brochure, CN probably accepted them from the printer believing that people wouldn’t walk out on the restaurant simply because of poor printing especially since the nearest alternative restaurant was several miles away.

New Year’s Day 1946 Lunch Menu

Posted on January 1, 2021 by Train LoverSeptember 11, 2020

Soon after the war, Santa Fe/Fred Harvey began using menus with colorful paintings on their covers. But in 1946 their menu covers were plain, with little more decoration than the name of the train and a Santa Fe logo. This menu is actually unusual for the time period because of the traditional illustration of the Old Year passing the torch to the New. The letters below the illustration are embossed into the paper, as is barely visible on page 2 of the PDF.

Jasper in 1951

Posted on December 31, 2020 by Train LoverDecember 1, 2020

We’ve already seen the 1950 edition of CN’s Jasper booklet. This one follows a similar outline, but many of the photos are different, and even where they are the same, the text has been rewritten.

“The heart of this great national park is the town of Jasper, administration headquarters and railway centre, and — about three miles away — the Canadian National Railways famous summer hotel, Jasper Park Lodge,” says the 1950 booklet. “The Lodge is a big hotel. It has accommodation for 650 guests. But it has no elevators. It doesn’t need them, because it has no second storey. Indeed, the Lodge isn’t a building at all — it is a village of bungalows.” Continue reading →

The Jasper Way Through the Rockies

Posted on December 30, 2020 by Train LoverDecember 1, 2020

In 1948, Canadian Pacific published a 28-page booklet, By Train Through the Canadian Rockies. Printed on stiff paper, the booklet is filled with detailed maps and photos of the rail line showing mountains, rivers, and towns from the Alberta foothills of the Rockies to Kamloops, BC, west of which the line followed a water-level route to Vancouver. As if in response, in 1950 Canadian National issued this booklet providing similar maps from the entrance to Jasper National Park all the way to Vancouver, as well as maps of the former Grand Trunk Pacific line to Prince Rupert.

Parks Canada has a almost identical booklet dated 1951 and Archive.org has one with a different cover and some different interior photos dated 1955. I haven’t found any CN booklets dated before 1950, suggesting that it was imitating its competitor in providing this sort of information. Continue reading →

Dinner on the Prince George

Posted on December 29, 2020 by Train LoverDecember 1, 2020

Here’s another colorful dinner menu featuring a glacier that was supposedly visible from the Prince George. This menu has the same date, July 13, as yesterday’s lunch and the day-before-yesterday’s breakfast menu. As I noted with the breakfast menu, on July 13, 1950, the Prince George was headed southbound and would have stopped in Wrangell, Alaska, in the afternoon.

The Prince George almost certainly never came as close to a glacier as the ship in the picture. Today, we often see photos of cruise ships in Glacier Bay, but the ships rarely come closer than a half mile from the glaciers, and in any case Glacier Bay isn’t on the route from Skagway to Vancouver. However, there is nothing to say that the ship in the picture is actually the Prince George; in 1950, as today, there were plenty of smaller boats and ships willing to take Alaska tourists to see the glaciers.

Lunch on the Prince George

Like yesterday’s breakfast menu, the lunch menu on the Prince George was also presented on a card. This one shows a row of totem poles in Kitwanga, British Columbia. Kitwanga has fewer than 500 people but still has a row of totem poles looking remarkably like the ones on the menu.

With foods such as English pickled walnuts, chicken a la Maryland, and cod steak, this menu seems to be catering to eastern North Americans rather than giving a taste of the Pacific Coast. Canadian Pacific at least offered Alaska dishes such as halibut or salmon on its tiffin or lunch menus.

Breakfast on the Prince George

Posted on December 27, 2020 by Train LoverDecember 1, 2020

This breakfast menu card advertises Canadian National’s Fort Garry Hotel in Winnipeg, Fort Garry being the name of the original settlement that became Winnipeg. The menu has the usual egg-and-meat dishes plus a few unusual (by today’s standards) items such as calf’s liver and finnan haddie. Omelette aux Champignons sounds unusual but it’s just a mushroom omelet.
