The New City of Denver

Posted on October 6, 2019 by Train LoverAugust 21, 2019

Although Union Pacific swapped out some equipment on the original 1936 City of Denver, as of 1950 it was still using its original M-10005 and M-10006 locomotives and cars that were slightly smaller in profile than what had become the standard for lightweight trains. UP did not completely replace the train until 1954, making it the last UP streamliner to rely on pre-war equipment.

This booklet promotes that new train, advertising rather generic-looking lounge, dining, sleeping, and chair cars. The only distinctive car was the “Pub,” a lounge car made to look “like an old English tavern.” Why would people going to Denver be interested in an old English tavern when previously they had the Frontier Shack, decorated with authentic relics of the West?

The Copper King on the City of Portland

Posted on October 5, 2019 by Train LoverAugust 21, 2019

This booklet shows that the M-10004, remodeled as the LA-4, served as the City of Portland in 1941. While UP did not remodel the train for 1941, it did add two new cars — an open-section sleeper and a 48-seat coach — plus an additional power car to handle the longer train and the steeper grades on the City of Portland route as the steepest grades in UP’s system were in the Blue Mountains of northeastern Oregon.

Except for the appropriate substitution of “Portland” for “Los Angeles” and mentions of the additional cars, most of this booklet is a word-for-word copy of the 1938 City of Los Angeles booklet that I downloaded from the Smithsonian’s web site. This is a little odd because that booklet is wider than this one, yet all the photographs, page breaks, and even the line breaks are the same. This booklet also includes the two pages about the City of Los Angeles dining car that are missing from the Smithsonian site.

“New” City of Los Angeles Booklet

Posted on October 4, 2019 by Train LoverAugust 21, 2019

Although this July 1939 booklet says “new,” the train it describes was introduced in December 1937. This train included the Little Nugget car, a parabolic-tailed observation car, two coaches, seven sleepers, and a two-car coffee shop/diner (with the kitchen occupying half of the coffee shop car). These cars, plus a baggage car, were hauled by General Motors’ bulbous-nosed E2 locomotives.

Unmentioned in this booklet is the fact that, in March, 1939, four months before the booklet was published, UP had introduced a second streamliner to the Chicago-Los Angeles route, this one featuring an ultra-modern lounge car called the Hollywood and a blunt-end observation car. This train is featured in the July 1941 City of Los Angeles booklet shown here previously. It is strange that UP publicists were so late with the issuance of both booklets. Continue reading →

1938 City of San Francisco Booklet

Posted on October 3, 2019 by Train LoverAugust 21, 2019

This booklet describes the version of the City of San Francisco that was inaugurated on January 2, 1938. It included 14 passenger cars and three “power cars” or E2 Diesel locomotives. Each car is described in detail except for the dormitory-baggage car and a dormitory-buffet-lounge car. It makes sense to leave out the baggage car, but it is surprising that the buffet-lounge was skipped.

With the forgotten buffet-lounge car, the train had 181 non-revenue seats compared with 206 revenue seats, which was one of the highest ratios of non-revenue to revenue seats of any train in history. Particularly surprising is that it had only one coach. Perhaps UP assumed that most people willing to pay the extra fare to ride a streamliner would go Pullman, or perhaps UP planned to add more coaches as they became available from the manufacturer.

The 1930 Columbine

Posted on October 2, 2019 by Train LoverAugust 21, 2019

Introduced in 1927 and described in yesterday’s booklet, the Chicago-Denver Columbine must have been a success as Union Pacific made several improvements that are described in this 1930 booklet. Most important, the “limousine observation car,” which had 34 lounge seats plus a drawing room and a compartment, was replaced by a full-length observation with 43 lounge seats plus a barber shop and a room with a bath.

Intriguingly, the booklet says that the exterior of the car was painted “blue, silver and gold. . . representing the state flag of Colorado.” Of course, that flag has been blue, white, red, and yellow, not silver, since 1911, but the car would still have been distinctive. Otto Perry took a black-and-white photo of the car on its first day of operation, but here is a model that attempts to replicate the colors. Continue reading →

The Columbine: Flower of Travel Comfort

Posted on October 1, 2019 by Train LoverJuly 2, 2019

Issued a year after the train was inaugurated, this 1928 booklet describes the amenities available on board this Chicago-Denver train. These include a “limousine observation car” staffed by a “Filipino attendant” who pressed garments, operated the buffet-soda fountain, and sold cigars, cigarettes, and playing cards. I’m not sure what made the car a “limousine,” but it had eight seats in a large-windowed observation room, 15 more seats in an observation lounge, seven seats in a men’s smoking room, four seats in a women’s lounge, plus a drawing room and compartment.

Gold Coast Limited

Posted on September 30, 2019 by Train LoverJuly 2, 2019

November 14, 1926 was a banner day for western passenger trains. On that day, Santa Fe introduced the Chief, Union Pacific completely re-equipped the Los Angeles Limited and Overland Limited, and Southern Pacific-Rock Island re-equipped the Golden State Limited, all of whose schedules between Chicago and California were reduced from 68 to 63 hours. On the same day, Union Pacific introduced the Gold Coast Limited, which connected Chicago with both San Francisco and Los Angeles and which followed the same 68-hour schedule that the other trains had used prior to that day.

The Depression killed the Gold Coast in 1931, but Union Pacific revived the name in 1947. The post-war train, which lasted until 1955, had both sleepers and coaches, but the pre-Depression train was initially all Pullmans. By 1930, UP added tourist sleepers to the train. These weren’t as fancy as Pullmans and their occupants weren’t allowed access to the observation car, so they slightly brought down the classiness of the train. Continue reading →

Union Pacific 1996 Calendar

Union Pacific had taken over the Chicago and North Western in 1995, and the February photo of this calendar shows a C&NW train in the Powder River Coal Basin. While this photo is credited to “CNW,” all the other photos were credited to specific photographers.

At some point, a Union Pacific executive suggested to the railroad’s public relations department that all of the photos in the calendars should have trains in them. This one comes closer than any previous edition, with ten train photos and only two pure scenery photos. Both of the scenic photos were taken by the same La Grande, Oregon photographer, Jeffrey Torretta, who also had two photos in the 1992 calendar. His October photo is especially good.

The 1995 calendar has even less geographic representation than the one for 1994, with four photos from California, three from Oregon, two from Wyoming, and one each from Idaho, Oklahoma, and Washington. All of the Oregon photos were taken just a few miles apart from one another in the Columbia River Gorge.

All but two of the photos in the 1994 calendar show Union Pacific trains, and one of those two is of the Grand Tetons in a scene repeatedly shown in pre-1971 calendars. Providing some relief from the parade of GM and GE Diesels, one of the photos shows Union Pacific’s Challenger locomotive, the 3985, in Cheyenne.

Little effort was made to provide geographical representation. A photo in Missouri is the only one from the states added to the UP by the purchase of MP and MKT. There are three photos each from Nevada and Wyoming, two each from Colorado and Oregon, and one each from California and, as mentioned, Missouri. The best photo is one of Colorado’s Red Mountain Pass, which shows red rocks, yellow aspen, and an old mining building in the foreground.
