Streamlined Trains of the 1930s and Their Industrial Designers

Streamlined Trains of the 1930s and Their Industrial Designers

With the popularity of the private automobile and the effects of the Great Depression, passenger travel on the American railroads was in a steep decline. Something was needed to bring passengers back to the trains. This presentation will show how it was done and how the same steps were taken in the 1950s to once again bring passengers back to the trains.
