List,

I just came across two items of information the dining car folks might be interested in. They are both from the Buffalo Courier Express.

The first is a notice from April 18, 1903 that the Lackawanna is handing out a map on platinum paper as a souvenir. I assume this might be on the front or back cover of a menu. Anyone know?

The second is from June 25, 1897 complaing that railroad dining cars only sell full meals at full prices, even if one wants only a cup of coffee. It states the DL&W is now going to a cafe service along with the LV. (see attached)
