GREAT JACKSON ROUTE 

 Chicago, St. Louis and New Orleans R. R. 



NEW OHLEAITS TO CAIRO, 111., 



S48 MILES. 



The New Orleans, Jackson and Great Northern and Mississippi 

 Central Railroads are now consolidated under the above name and worked 

 under one management,'and the line is being improved up to the highest 

 standard. Its reconstruction has been progressing daring the past year 

 and a half, and it is in a better condition, both in track and equipment, 

 than ever before. 20,000 tons of steel rails have been laid, 200,000 ties 

 renewed, and over 5,000 feet of bridging rebuilt. Construction and gravel 

 trains are constantly at work, smoothing and ballasting the road-bed. This 

 work will be continued, without regard to expense, until the entire line is 

 renewed, and the phrase " A First Class Road," so often misapplied, belongs 

 to it without contradiction. 



In consequence of the improvements made, the speed of Passenger 

 Trains will be greatly increased this season. Fast time, new and elegant 

 coaches, and long runs of sleeping cars, are the attractions now offered 

 to the business and pleasure travel of New Orleans and the country along 

 the line. 



G^TWO DAILY TRAINS^ 



Each way, without change of sleeping cars, run between New Orleans and 

 Cairo, St. Louis, Chicago, Louisville aod Cincinnati, and but

and all the principal eastern cities.
