Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Reports of Committees and Discussions Thereon, Vol. 3: Excursion Appendix; Narrative of the Tour of the Delegates Through the United States; Together With Description of Places Visited, and Reports of Addresses Delivered At a quarter past 8 on the morning of October 3, 1889, the delegates to the International American Conference, accompanied by their secretaries and attaches, and a number of newspaper correspondents, started upon a tour through the country as the guests of the United States Government. The railway train in which the journey of nearly 6,000 miles was to be made stood in the station of the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Company. It was the most complete train ever known in the history of railroading, and consisted of an engine and six Pullman cars, all new and equipped with every improvement and device for the comfort and convenience of the passengers that human genius could suggest. As it stood in the station ready to receive its distinguished passengers the train represented a money value of $150,000. In its composition it was as complete in all its appointments as a metropolitan hotel or club-house. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
