Travel In Comfort When you travel, be comfortable. The tracks and trains of the Pennsylvania Railroad are built for comfort. The roadbed is rock-ballasted and evenly graded; and the rails are solid steel. Pullmans and coaches, are all-steel, heavy and easy riding. The through express trains have parlor smoking or club cars with moveable easy chairs, and a la carte dining service that is unexcelled. All sleeping cars are the last word in appointments; the coaches are cheerful, commodious and restful. Limited trains, like the Broadway Limited between New York and Chicago, the 24-Hour St. Louis, The Pennsylvania Limited, Con- gressional Limited, and Chicago Limited have Pullman observation cars on the rear with moveable armchairs and large windows, as well as an open platform, for viewing the passing scenery. Up-to-date libraries, current periodicals, daily papers, and courteous attendants are features of the Limited train service. Pennsylvania Railroad service enjoys the reputation of being distinctively high grade and comfortable.
