In response, the CB\u0026amp;Q, D\u0026amp;RGW and WP decided to operate a train that could take passengers to the event. Service on the Exposition Flyer began on June 10, 1939.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the beginning, the train used steam locomotives as motive power and consisted of the heavyweight Pullman standard cars. In later years, however, the train would operate using diesel power and in the final months of service it used streamlined passenger cars \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInitially, the train was supposed to be a temporary route, but, due to the train's popularity, which made it a significant rival to the City of San Francisco, the Flyer remained in operation until 1949.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCourtesy Private Collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGallery quality Giclée print on natural white, matte, 100% cotton rag, acid and lignin free archival paper using Epson archival inks.
