HIS PRAISE OF THE PENNBYLVANIA'S NEW
YORK AND CHICAGO LIMITED,
[From N. Y. Times, March 13th, 1588.)
The following extract from an English
gentleman’s letter to a friend in London
Es him to be a keen observer, and
demonstrates his appreciation of Amer:
ican railway methods as he found their
best exemp fication on the Penveylvanin
Railroad.
“Having determined to go to the West,
1 cast about for the best means of reach-
ing that great land, There are no Brad.
shaws in America, but every railway
company issues in the most profuse gnan-
tities time-tables and guide- books to their
lines, and the booking agents, who reem
0 be ubiquitous as well as omnipresent,
are exceediogly accomodating in faruidh-
ing every detail of information a tourist
would need. 1 bethought me of a con
versation 1 bad had on board the steam-
er with a clever young American, in
which he had spoken very warmly the
praises of the Pennsylvania Route, and
especially of their very excellent trains
between New York and Chicago. 1 fol-
lowed up this cine, and found that the
piece de resistance of their service was the
New York and Chiesgo Limited, a train
in whose description the agent grew elo
quent. The resuit was that I booked for it,
and am free to confess that I never did a
wiser thing. In order to thoroughly ap.
preciate the usefulness of this train you
must know that it supplies everything
one needs to foster enjoyment and make
the time pass pleasantly. Its carriages
are so wonderfully constructed that they
provide food, lodging and entertainment
My train was to leaye New York at 9
o'clock in the morning, so. I arose at 8,
dresced, and proceeded to the station,
At a few minutes past 9 the wheels began
to revolve, and we were off through the
low lands of New Jersey. The fresh
morning air had given an edge to my ap-
petite, aud in the wake of the attendent,
whom the Americans, with their uice
sense of the fitness of things, call a “por.
ter,’ becanse he carries your baggage upon
the slightest encouragement, [ entered
