A TRAIN OF STRIKING APPEARANCE AND GENUINE UTILITY
he iiand of designer Henry Dreyfuss. V * / at once is apparent in the powerful, and pleasing, exterior of the James Whiteomb Riley, as well as in the interiors of the dining car and observation solarium. The fast, dark gray Pacific locomotive, especially adapted to this new service, with its striking red driving wheels and trim, and the various cars o (
the train, effectively joined by the vermilion window band, give a touch of gayety, yet dignity; power and serviceability, are instantaneously reflected. The colorful new train unquestionabl> will be one of the most distinctive in America, and one which will stir the
imagination and win the approval of the traveling public. The silver-like lustre of the 9 t a i n l e s s steel coaches, a happy clash with the predominantly gray mail, dining and observation cars, and in sharp contrast with the vermilion window band, present a striking color combination. The locomotive, mail, dining car and observation car were constructed in the Beech Grove Shops of the New York Central System in collaboration with designer Henry Dreyfuss and New York Central engineers, while the four stainless coaches of the train were built by the Budd Company.
