Santa Fe outlines a land-bridge train for 20 steamship groups to move cargo between Europe and the Orient with no switching. The plan would originate outside U S continental boundaries and run between California ports and Chicago for Santa Fe and Chicago to New York for Penn Central. It promises permanent service, higher mainline importance, better maintenance, and a large payroll at shipping ports while reducing reliance on the Panama Canal.
