Canadian Pacific Winter 1957 Timetable

Posted on March 13, 2015 by Train LoverMarch 13, 2015

This 68-page timetable is longer than the 36-page 1953 edition posted here a few days ago as that one just covered western and transcontinental trains. But the big change in this timetable is the the stainless steel Canadian on the cover; the Dominion was given the same new equipment, with enough dome-cafe and dome-observation cars that both the Montreal and Toronto sections of both trains would have two domes.

Transcontinental service in 1957 consisted of the Canadian (using the coveted numbers 1 & 2, with the Toronto section numbered 11 & 12); the Dominion (still numbered 7 & 8, with the Toronto section numbered 3 & 4 merging in Sudbury); the Soo-Dominion (numbered 13 & 14 and consisting of coaches and a diner-lounge; no sleepers east of Moose Jaw), which merged with the Dominion at Moose Jaw; and the local, coach-only train, now numbered 5 & 6 with the Montreal section numbered 9 & 10.

CN Lake Bennett Menu

Posted on March 12, 2015 by Train LoverDecember 20, 2014

This menu was used on a Canadian National steamship to Alaska in 1956. That date means that the ship was either the Prince Rupert or the Prince George. Prince Rupert would have been the same ship that carried yesterday’s menu, but its sister ship, Prince George, had been destroyed in a fire in 1945, so Canadian National ordered a new one of the same name built in British Columbia, which became the largest passenger ship ever built on Canada’s West Coast.

The cover on this menu shows St. Andrews Church, which was built on the shores of British Columbia’s Lake Bennett during the Klondike Gold Rush era. Some sources say it was built by stampeders who had crossed Chilkoot and White passes in the winter of 1897 and were waiting at Lake Bennett for the ice to break up so they could float the Yukon River to Dawson City, at which time they abandoned the church. But more authoritative sources say the church was built in 1899, after the stampede, to serve people living in the area. In any case, it’s the only gold rush-era building that still survives on the Chilkoot Trail.

CN 1943 Alaska Menu

Posted on March 11, 2015 by Train LoverDecember 20, 2014

This menu was used on the Canadian National steamship Prince Rupert between Vancouver and Skagway, Alaska in 1943. Along with a sister ship named Prince George, the SS Prince Rupert had been built in England in 1910 for the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, and both were transferred to the Canadian National when the government took over the fail Grand Trunk Pacific and Canadian Northern.

This particular dinner menu, which is dated Sunday, January 10, 1943, is smaller than most dining car menus, being just 5-1/2×7-7/8 inches. This is probably because the meals were included in the fare so there was no need to have detailed prices or an a la carte section.

Kicking Horse River Menu

Posted on March 10, 2015 by Train LoverDecember 15, 2014

This menu cover shows an upper reach of the Kicking Horse River, which the Canadian Pacific followed from its source at Wapta Lake to Golden, BC, where the river emptied into the Columbia. The back of the menu says that the river was named when a horse “kicked a surveyor into the river. History recalls the horse, but has forgotten the name of the victim who scrambled up the bank, dripping wet, and named the river.”

Actually, history–or, at least, Wikipedia–remembers very well the name of the surveyor, James Hector. Based on Hector’s account, he wasn’t kicked into the river by the horse but was standing on the riverbank trying to rescue another horse that had slipped into the river when his own horse kicked him the chest. “It knocked me down and rendered me senseless for some time,” he said. But the way the menu told the story is more amusing.

Takakkaw Falls Menu

Posted on March 9, 2015 by Train LoverDecember 15, 2014

I grew up in Portland, Oregon and loved to visit Multnomah Falls and other waterfalls in the Columbia River Gorge. When I read that Takakkaw Falls in British Columbia was more than twice as high as Multnomah, I had to go see it, so in 1975 I bicycled from Portland to Field, BC (via Banff). While there, I got my first glimpse of the spiral tunnels, so I took a round-trip on the Canadian from Field to Lake Louise, going through each of the tunnels twice, once in the dome car and once (at the invitation of the engineer) in the locomotive cab.

Dated June, 1955, this menu was used on one of the Canadian Pacific princess steamships, probably the Princess Louise, as it says it was in Alaska service.

Banff Indian Days Menu

Posted on March 8, 2015 by Train LoverDecember 14, 2014

The story goes that in 1889 a rockslide temporarily blocked the rail line, leaving passengers stranded at Banff. To keep the passengers entertained, the railway hired the nearby Stoney Indians to dance for them. The event was so successful that it was repeated every year thereafter.

This story is probably apocryphal: sometimes the date is given as 1887, sometimes 1894, and there is no real record of an Indian Days event until the early 1900s. Today, the annual festival, which ended in the late 1970s, is looked down upon by some as affirming cultural stereotypes. But from about 1902 to 1978 it brought people from all over the world and put some money in the pockets of impoverished natives.

Posted on March 7, 2015 by Train LoverDecember 14, 2014

This menu is for the last evening meal on a 1955 trip of the Princess Louise from Vancouver to Skagway, Alaska. The 1953 timetable indicates that this steamship sailed three times a month in May through September, stopping in Prince Rupert, Petersburg, Ketchikan, and Juneau on the trip north and the same cities except Wrangell in place of Petersburg on the trip south.

Canadian Pacific Ticket Envelope

Posted on March 6, 2015 by Train LoverDecember 14, 2014

This undated envelope advertises the Canadian, so it is from 1955 or (since it doesn’t say “the new Canadian) more likely later. It once included tickets for someone named John Vennema, who was staying at the Roosevelt Hotel and departing from pier 64 at the foot of Lenora Street at 8 am on July 25.

Since 1931, pier 64 had served Canadian Pacific princess steamships in Seattle. In the 1950s, CP’s Princesses Elizabeth, Joan, Marguerite II, or Patricia II departed this pier for Victoria at 8 o’clock every morning in the summer. After reaching Victoria, the ships then went to Vancouver, returning the next day. The first two of these steamships were built in 1930 and were mainly used in winter service while the latter two were built in 1949 and were mainly used in summer service, so Mr. Vennema was probably on the Marguerite or Patricia.

Eastward Across Canada

Posted on March 5, 2015 by Train LoverDecember 13, 2014

This 32-page booklet includes numerous full-color photos of sights and destinations along the route of the Canadian Pacific. As an along-the-way route guide, it is designed for eastbound travel; instead of just saying, “Westbound travelers should read this from back to front” as some railroads did, CP published a separate guide for travelers going in the other direction that I’ll post here soon.

However, inside nearly every page is bordered by abstract maps showing cities long the route with yellow background and red for the rail line and cities.
