Before highways and affordable air travel, trains were the preferred mode of long-distance transportation. Nearly every American town had a train station, and the sound of midnight freight was commonplace. Railways offered practicality and a touch of luxury, but it was advertising that truly fuelled the industry’s success. Rail companies enlisted talented artists to design posters highlighting stunning landscapes and the allure of train travel. This calendar celebrates vintage posters that capture the romance and destinations of train journeys across the U.S., offering a scenic trip back in time.
