Some alterations to chapter 36 ready for 37 to be posted. My editor, Old Rotorhead pointed out to me that there would have been a change of trains part way, whereas I had claimed UP all the way. Anything but. A little research informed me that from Chicago to Council Bluffs it was most likely the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific - difficult to determine largely due to the antics of Mr Durant - then a ferry across the Missouri, UP to Ogden and Central Pacific to Sacramento. Then Western Pacific to San Francisco. Phew!
So there you have it, 37 (very exciting) will be posted for the weekend and 38 is being written.
