Time table travel fantasia across America and Europe
An amused narrator extols timetables as travel fuel, contrasting American railway schedules and prices with Europe. He recalls collecting timetables from Detroit to Mexico and back, noting the convenience and costs, while preferring the simplicity and affordability of timetable books over real trips. He laments paying for timetables in America, praises European guides, and contemplates a timetable tour that blends curiosity with prudent budgeting.
