Sept. 1952: "The Train that Sparked an Era" is a tribute to the 
original Pioneer Zephyr, the train that made the name Zephyr 
famous. This is its biography. The 2nd article is "Denver at 
Dawn, Chicago at Dusk" which is a wonderful report on the 
Pioneer Zephyr's historical May, 1934 historical nonstop run from 
the Rockies to the Great Lakes. 12 b&w photos: $5.00 postpaid

June 1959: "How the "'Greyhounds'" of the Burlington Beat the 
Rising Sun" is a full reproduction of a promotional booklet 
issued by the CB&Q as a tribute to train 59 The Fast Mail. The 
author, William B. Hunter,  rode the cab of locomotive 590 a 
Baldwin 2-4-2 built in 1895 and rebuilt into an Atlantic in 1905. 
The run takes place in 1899 when there was much competition 
among railroads to secure mail contracts. The entire pamphlet 
is published including the dramatic artwork.  The Burlington was 
very fast at the end of the 19th Century. $5.00 postpaid
