About The Golden Age of Rail
Steam hisses up from beneath the locomotive, the deep-throated whistle echoing across an open plain, the gentle sway of a Pullman car as the country rolls past the window. This is a kind of travel that no jetway or highway has ever quite replaced. The Golden Age of Rail gathers the whole world of it: the grand depots with their vaulted ceilings and marble floors, the railroad crews who kept the iron road running through every kind of weather, the famous named trains that turned a journey into an occasion. You'll find the California Zephyr threading through mountain passes, the Orient Express conjuring intrigue and elegance, and the Transcontinental Railroad, hammered spike by spike across a continent, sitting alongside the everyday poetry of steam, smoke, and steel. Pick any puzzle that calls to you and take your time with it.
