The duckbill-roofed cars in post-Civil War passenger trains antedated the highly-ornamented classic cars of the 1890's; the windows in Central Pacific coach 12 (opposite) hardly gave vista-dome views. Unusual, therefore, is the ancient open-side car shown below, from which properly-impressed passengers gaped at the awesome American River Canyon from the Cape Horn vantage-point in the high Sierra. The coaches ahead are those which traversed the continent in the very first post-Golden Spike expresses.
