About this book

Two Railway Sensations

Author: Jeremy Broome

Year: 1899

pp445 - 451, illus with photos, printed in double columns, salvaged from a neglected copy of The Strand Magazine, Volume XVII, #100, May, 1899. Contains two articles; the first, the January, 1899, "race" between the Chicago, Burlington, And Quincy railroad and the Chicago and North Western railroad to see who would earn the postal contract to deliver mail between Chicago, Illinois, and Omaha, Nebraska, and the second; a staged train crash near Denver, Colorado, between the Bill McKinley and the Mark Hanna. Very scarce. Many factors came together that were not according to plan, but you, dear reader, must finish the article to know all about them.
