The Central Pacific Railroad

OF CALIFORNIA.

453

THIS RAILROAD FORMS PART OF THE GREAT CONTINENTAL ROAD

BETWEEN

SAN FRANCISCO AND NEW YORK. It is confidently anticipated that all the connecting Roads will be completed about the 1st day of July, 1869, when a traveller can be transported from SAN FRANCISCO TO NEW YORK

IN SIX DAYS,

The distance being about 3,300 Miles.

No arrangements have yet been made between the several connecting Companies, regulating the rates of fare from San Francisco to New York, but it is expected that the fare for a first-class Passenger will not exceed One Hundred and Fifty Dollars, and fast freight not more than One Hundred Dollars per ton. Public notice will be given when these rates are fixed.

Ne

This

Boute,

IN CONNECTION WITH THE

PACIFIC MAIL STEAM-SHIPS,

Will be found to be the MOST EXPEDITIOUS AND THE CHEAPEST line of communication between Asiatic Ports and the Atlantic and Euro- pean States. The road will be amply supplied with motive power and rolling stock,

ESPECIALLY WITH

FIRST CLASS PASSENGER AND SLEEPING CARS,

OF THE MOST APPROVED STYLE.

General Superintendent.
