Call NumberZ-6849Date1937SummarySpectators gather around the Union Pacific Railroad streamliner: "City of Salina" as people stand in line to enter a passenger car on display at Union Station in Denver, Colorado. The combination locomotive and mail car has a bullet shaped nose with a metal grate and pulls a railroad passenger coach and a club car. Lettering on the locomotive reads: "Union Pacific," "United States Mail," and "M-1000." A brick building near the train has fire escapes and painted signs that read: "Beatrice Creamery; Creamery, Dairy, Ice Cream Supplies and Equipment, Wholesale Eggs." Railroad buildings and a water tower are in the distance.Physical Description1 photographic print : black-and-white ; 12 x 16 cm (5 x 6 in.)Born-Digital or AnalogAnalogSubjectCity of Salina (Streamliner)Union Pacific Railroad CompanyDenver (Colo.)Exhibitions--Colorado--DenverPassengers--Colorado--DenverRailroad locomotives--Colorado--DenverRailroads--Colorado--DenverSpectators--Colorado--DenverGeographic AreaDenver (Colo.)CollectionPhotographs - Western HistoryRelated MaterialImage File: ZZR711006849Type of MaterialPhotographic printsBlack & white photographsNotesFormerly F16320; Title penciled on verso of photographic print.
