We’ve seen several brief histories of the Union Pacific, but the railroad went all out for the 1969 centennial of the completion of the transcontinental railroad, publishing several different histories for the occasion. This one is the shortest: a brochure that unfolds to about 9″x16″.

The phrase “brief history” is correct. In addition to the cover, five panels of this brochure are devoted to the construction effort; one to travel before the railroad; and one to “today and tomorrow.” There is virtually nothing about the 100 years of history between the Last Spike and the time the brochure was published.

December 1969 Condensed Timetable

This tiny timetable was issued just three months after the yesterday’s, but some major changes have been made. The biggest is that the Portland Rose, train 17 & 18, terminates in Denver and no longer connects with the City of Kansas City or the train that used to be the Portland Rose between Denver and Kansas City, now numbered 117 & 118.

Where the train once went through from Kansas City to Portland, there is now a 10-1/2-hour layover westbound and a 7-1/4-hour layover eastbound. The Portland Rose survived this long only because the Interstate Commerce Commmission wouldn’t let UP kill it, so maybe the railroad broke this connection as an act of revenge.

Union Pacific Fall, 1969 Timetable

Posted on by September 20, 2016
Reply

Union Pacific managed to fill 36 pages for its 1969 timetable, but only did so by being highly repetitive and showing plenty of timetables for which there were no actual trains. Table number 1 on page 15 is saddest of all: at first glance, it shows five trains a day between Omaha and Cheyenne. A closer look reveals that four of them, the City of San Francisco, City of Los Angeles/Chellenger, City of Portland, and City of Denver, all had the same schedule, the so-called “City of Everywhere.” Only the fifth train, the unnamed trains 5 & 6, provides some variety, and that Omaha-Los Angeles train consisted solely of coaches, with “station stops for meals en route.”

Pages 6 through 9 are little more than repeats of the timetables for the four City trains and trains 5 & 6. This repeat was somewhat useful when UP had three or four trains on each route, but here it’s just filler. Many of the timetables on pages 22 and 23, and nearly all of them on 24 and 25, are marked “K” meaning freight only. Why are they included at all?

The 1968 edition of this booklet has some major differences from the 1962 and 1964 editions. First, the number of available tours has been reduced from 13 to 10, though the deleted tours are all combinations of other tours including a Northwest-California tour, a Southern Utah-California tour, and a Yellowstone-Rocky Mountain national parks tour. This booklet fills the space used to describe those tours in the older booklets with colorful maps of each of the tour regions.

At least one of the tours includes nights at the Chateau Lake Louise, Banff Springs Hotel, Prince of Wales Hotel, Many Glacier Hotel, and Lake MacDonald Hotel.

Union Pacific-Rock Island Merger

In 1964, Union Pacific proposed to merge with the Rock Island Railroad. This merger seemed like it would gain quick approval as, at the time, the government favored end-to-end mergers rather than mergers of parallel lines such as GN-NP and NYC-PRR. The merger would give Union Pacific entry into Chicago, while Rock Island’s Kansas City-Tucumcari line would be spun off to the Southern Pacific. This 1965 booklet describes the proposal.

So many other railroads objected that the government took ten years to reach a decision. Approval was not granted until 1974, with the conditions that Rock Island’s Memphis-Amarillo line be sold to Santa Fe, while the Kansas City-Colorado line that paralleled Union Pacific’s route was to be sold to the Rio Grande.

The Union Pacific Historical Museum

Union Pacific once housed a museum in its Omaha headquarters building. The museum featured documents relating to the First Transcontinental Railroad signed by President Lincoln, an original silver service that came from a Pullman car built for Lincoln that served as his funeral car, and plenty of other mementos of the railroad and the early history of the West.

The museum also houses the railroad’s archives, which are not open to the public.

Union Pacific History: 1964

This booklet is very similar to a 1951 booklet describing Union Pacific’s history. While the covers are different, the text and some of the photos in the first 21 numbered pages of this booklet are nearly identical to those in the 1951 edition. The next seven pages, however, are completely different, with a much greater emphasis on freight and only four paragraphs (plus a page of photos) for passenger service.

One of the last pages of each booklet lists the presidents of the Union Pacific since 1862. The last listed president in both cases is A.E. Stoddard, who was president from 1949 to January 1, 1965.

Union Pacific Sells Sun Valley

After nearly 30 years of operations, Sun Valley’s infrastructure was wearing out. Rather than invest the estimated $6 million needed to rehabilitate it, Union Pacific decided to sell the nation’s first destination ski resort to Bill Janns, a southern California developer who happened to be the consultant who came up with the $6 million estimate. Janns paid UP $3 million.

In 1961, guests at Union Pacific’s Utah Parks Company lodges enjoyed these postcard lunch menus. The top of the menu could be torn off and mailed as a postcard, thus doing double duty in advertising the lodges.

This one shows Grand Canyon Lodge and offers meals featuring perch, omelet, pork cutlet, or tips of beef with juice or soup, potatoes, succotash, rolls, dessert, and beverage for $1.75 (about $14 in today’s money). The menu also offered a chef’s salad, cold cuts, or a ground beef sandwich on toast with French fries, all apparently for $1.75 as well since no other prices are shown.
