I am looking for references to pamphlets, articles, or books
describing passenger etiquette on trains, pullman cars, observation
or dining cars, particularly from 1880s to 1915.
tlin:
"A Treasury of Railroad Folklore, " B. A. Botkin and Alvin F. Harlow, eds.,
Bonanza Books, New York, 1989 (originally published 1953), has a chapter "The
Passenger is Always Right" pp. 416-433. These are anecdotes about passenger
travel told by railroaders either collected by the editors or culled from early
publications ca. 1882-1915. There's not a lot here, but it may help.
