Additional Details:

A train of early-day equipment that operated years ago on Burlington Lines in Colorado carries Chicago Railroad Fair visitors from one end of the grounds to the other. The names of the engine and cars are reminiscent of the old Deadwood Central Railroad that served the Black Hills of South Dakota in the exciting days of Deadwood Dick and other well-known western characters.
