The California Zephyr : Story of America's Most Talked About Train
|
| Producer: |
For twenty-one years beginning in 1949, the California Zephyr with its famous vista dome observation cars pampered nearly two million passengers as they traveled between San Francisco and Chicago. Although it was not the fastest route to the west coast, it had the best scenery and became known as the "most talked about train in America"
This exciting program will carry you back to the final years of the California Zephyr when America's passenger trains were terminally ill and bleeding red ink from huge operating losses. The program also includes an audio compact disc with over 70 minutes of recordings taken aboard and around the train including station announcements.
