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.
