Title: BAMBERGER RAILROAD COMPANY TIME TABLE No. 116. In Effect on Sunday, April 4, 1948
Description: Ogden, UT: Bamberger Railroad Company, 1948. 1st printing. Black ink printed to light blue/green paper. Single sheet, folded once with a vertical crease. Charts on front of paper. Oblong format:. Moderate wear to paper (age-toning, creasing & light chipping). Previous tape repair to rear side. An about VG example. "What is remarkable about this performance is that the Bamberger achieved the 'Flyer' speed on a mainline with considerable single track that was crowded with freight and passenger trains. The Bamberger ran both speedy lightweight 'Bullet' cars (acquired in 1939 from the Fonda, Johnstown and Gloversville) and heavy old interurban cars. (Business was so good during World War II the lightweights built in 1932 had to be removed from some of the 'Flyer' schedules because of their limited seating capacity, and old cars were speeded up for the schedules)" [from the Utah Rails website].
