Description
This map of Canada and the United States was aimed at American tourists and riders aboard the Grand Trunk Railway. Published by the Poole Brothers in Chicago, it highlights Canada’s cross country rail routes in bold red lines, showing both those in operation and under construction.
An inset map in the lower left continues the coverage into British Columbia and Alaska, while a second inset in the lower right shows the routes served by the Canadian National Steamships. The latter shows several steamer lines serving British colonies in the Caribbean and South America – presumably in case travelers were looking to get away somewhere just a bit warmer.
