The Rio Grande Western Railway1 “The Great Salt Lake Route,” has re sumed its fast train services to the East, making the run from Port'and to Chi cago in three days and a half. No lay over is necessary, and ouly one change of cars is made. Those who desire it have the privilege, however, of a day- I light stopover either at Salt Lake City ' or Denver. Three daily express trains are run, leaving Ogden, Utah, at 7:15 a. m., and 1:15 and 7 p in. Themorn- > ing train carries a through standard sleeper to Chicago, via the Burlington | Route, and the night train one via the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Rail way. Tlie tourist sleepers and chair cars run daily as formerly through , from Portland to Denver. Twice a week tourist excursion cars are run ■ through from Portland to Boston. All trains carry dining cars, making the trip across the continent, via “The I Great Salt Lake Route,” most desira ble. The Rio Grande Western Railway , is the ouly road running tlnough Salt ' Lake City, and with its connections — the Denver & Rio Grande and the Col orado Midland—takes the passenger j through the famous Rocky mountain scenery of Colorado.
