ROYAL BLUE TRAINS.
In September last, railwav officials
from London were sent to America, to
get ideas on the railway passenger
service of the leading lines in this
country, and in their official report,
which was printed in the London
Times in January, it was stated that
the "Royal Blue Line" series of mag
nificent passenger trains, running be
tween New York, Philadelphia, Balti-
1 more and Washington, lead the world
lor quick and exquisite train service.
The "Royal Blue Line" service con
sists of nine elegant passenger trains
a day in each direction between the
cities named above. They are the
finest and fastest trains in the world.
Their equipment was built especially
for the service by the Pullman Com
pany, and includes every modern con
venience known for the comfort of
passengers. The trains are vestibuled
from end to end, and hauled by the
strongest and fastest locomotives in
the United States.
The exquisite day coaches of these
trains are worthy of special note.
They are beautifully upholstered,
each containing a washroom and
smoking compartment.
The parlor cars are the most pala
tial ever built, being fully seventy
three feet long. In addition to this
service, three new parlor cars were
added in April, and are the first of
this kind ever run; they are richly up
holstered and ornamented throughout
in most beautiful designs. A ladies'
retiring-room is provided in one end
of the car. This room, which is six
feet square, is furnished with a beauti
ful dresser with large mirror and a
number of drawers. On each side of
it are upholstered corner seats. In an
other corner is a bookcase and station
ary washstand. The room was de
signed for especial comfort of ladies,
hinfi't,hpnfr3piiinr Tii ncoi
smoking apartment, however, is at the
ftafWfejfc x-s niiwu bt v w w m uuuui
opposite end of the car.

P. M., making the run to Washington
in FIVE hours. Returning , the "Roy
al Limited will leave Washington at

P M. The "Royal Blue Line" will
then boast of three trains which make
this extraordinary fast time between
Washington and New York, which
has never been attained by any other
line. The "Royal Blue Trains" be
tween Baltimore and Washington
make the run in FORTY-FIVE MIN
UTES the fastest regular service ever
attained between the two cities.
The terminal at New York City is
