Dublin Core

Title

Indian Headdress (March, 1924) and Taking the Train from Chicago (June, 1924)

Description

That man again, standing next to a car, with the boys driving. George and Mort in Indian Head dress, with some other kids.

Then Ethel and the 3 boys standing on the "Los Angeles Limited" heading back to L.A. after a visit in Chicago.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles_Limited:
Beginning in 1905 the Los Angeles Limited was the flagship train of the Union Pacific between Chicago and Los Angeles. (From Chicago to Omaha the train was handled by the Chicago and North Western Railway). Union Pacific, which owned the train, completed the trip via Cheyenne, Ogden, Salt Lake City, Las Vegas and San Bernardino.

In early years the schedule was 68–74 hours; in November 1926 the schedule dropped to 63 hours each way to justify a $10 extra charge (which ended in June 1929).
