520 Promotional film made by the Southern Pacific Railroad
Company to show prospective tourists the route between New
York and San Francisco. The steamer Dixie leaves New York
and arrives in New Orleans with scenes of French Quarter
patios, the Court of the Two Sisters, St. Louis Cathedral,
the Cabildo, Chalmette and Mardi Gras. From there the
train goes through Houston (Houston Ship Channel, Rice
Institute), Galveston, San Antonio (the Alamo, Mission
Espada, Mission San Jose, Mission Concepcion, Kelly Field),
El Paso/Juarez (the Juzgad, Mission Guadalupe, monument to
Benito Juarez). The passengers leave the train at Globe
and take a trail coach on the Apache Trail (Roosevelt Lake
and Dam, Apache Lake, Tonto Cliff dwellings, Horse Mesa
Dam, Canyon Lake, Superstition Mountain). The train is
reboarded at Phoenix and on to California (Palm Springs,
San Jacinto Mountains, orange groves, the Mission Inn at
Riverside, residences in Pasadena, the Arroyo Seco
Bridge). In Los Angeles, the tourists view Los Angeles
Harbor, homes in Long Beach, Signal Hill, homes in Beverly
Hills, Hollywood, and an ostrich farm. They are then
offered a choice of the Coast Line or the Valley Line. The
Coast Line goes through Santa Barbara (Santa Barbara
Mission, downtown area), along the
520 Pacific Ocean, Mission San Miguel, Del Monte and the 17-
mile drive, the Spanish Custom House in Monterey. The
Valley Line goes to Yosemite and then on to San Francisco
via Oakland and a ferry across the Bay. The journey ends
in San Francisco with a view of the Golden Gate Bridge.
