Description
This broadside from the Milwaukee and Mississippi Railroad advertises upcoming changes to the railroad’s schedule due to longer summer days. These changes were announced in April each year and were replaced by winter arrangements in late summer. This pattern of changes continues to this day as passenger train schedules nationwide are still updated in the Spring and Fall.
