On February 12, 1934, Union Pacific premiered the M-10000, the first
lightweight, streamlined passenger train, calling it “Tomorrow’s Train
Today.” The tiny brown-and-yellow speedster offered hope and promise for
America’s future during the Great Depression. Later renamed City of
Salina, the train was the beginning of Union Pacific’s City Fleet of
streamliners including the City of Los Angeles, City of San Francisco,
City of Portland, City of Denver and Challenger, departing from Chicago
and serving all the West. Union Pacific system map, timetables, travel
brochures, and advertising are featured.
