A ride in the Train of Tomorrow
is much s|ike a ride in a heavy
automobile , on a good highway.
There is ndne of ithe side-sway
coiftmon to most trains.
: Seats are tailored to fit the
body, accordingXto measurements

trays, similar to thpke in an auto

The sunken lower section be
low the astra-dome, has three
semi-private compartments, two
of which seat seven persons and
the other six. These are arrang

friends or families;
In addition to telephone instal
lations that permit easy communi

is aboard the Train. [.j j!;
Similar to shipboard installations
this “ship-to-shore” type equip
ment'enables completion of calls
by combination of radio and local
or long-distance telephone lines.
Thus, white rolling along at 100
miles per hour or less, pasacingers
may call hiome, office or friends
anywhere in America or in the
world—pvoyided the train is with-
