Burlington November 1961 Timetable

Burlington (or its parents GN & NP) did some minor tinkering with schedules between the May 1961 timetable shown here yesterday and this November timetable, but no trains have gone missing. The biggest change I can find between the two timetables is that this one has added a bus schedule between Omaha and Sioux Falls.

Back in the 1930s, Burlington was one of the co-founders of Trailways, but it sold its share of the company in 1948. This schedule was included as a mere courtesy, as the Omaha-Sioux Falls bus didn’t replace any trains; Burlington tracks didn’t even reach Sioux Falls.
