Download or read book Southern Pacific s Slim Princess written by Andrew Brandon and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2022-10-10 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 60 years, the Southern Pacific's Slim Princess served as the lifeline to remote areas of western Nevada and eastern California. In 1880, the financiers of the Virginia & Truckee Railroad organized the Carson & Colorado Railroad to build a narrow-gauge line from the Carson River to the Colorado River, but that dream was never fully realized. In 1900, the Southern Pacific Railroad purchased the 300-mile line, envisioning it as a shortcut from Nevada to Southern California. The northern half of the line was converted to standard gauge in 1905. The section from Mina, Nevada, to Keeler, California, remained an isolated and celebrated part of the Southern Pacific until it succumbed to the scrapper's torch in 1960. Author Andrew Brandon has over 30 years of extensive study in railroad history and involvement with noteworthy projects in the railroad preservation community. Since 2001, he has been involved with the Nevada County Narrow Gauge Railroad Museum in Nevada City, where he currently serves as the curator. Brandon also serves on board of directors for the Southern Pacific Narrow Gauge Historical Society and the Nevada-California-Oregon Railway. In 2009, he helped establish PacificNG.org--a website dedicated to researching narrow-gauge railroads around the Pacific Rim.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mohammedan sanctuaries with their hideous stencil decorations and bulbous domes arejostled by many new shops with blinking fronts and German merchandise. The orthodox turn theirfaces toward Mecca while the enlightened dream of a journey to Paris. Men of title lately have madethe pleasing discovery that they may drink champagne and still be good Mussulmans. The red slipperhas been succeeded by the tan gaiter. The voluminous breeches now acknowledge the superiorgraces of intimate English trousers. Frock-coats are more conventional than beaded jackets. The fezremains as a part of the insignia of the old faith and hereditary devotion to the Sick Man.The generation of males which has been extricating itself from the shackles of Orientalism hasnot devoted much worry to the Condition of Woman.In Morovenia woman is still unliberated. She does not dine at a palm-garden or hop into avictoria on Thursday afternoon to go to the meeting of a club organized to propagate cults. If shemet a cult face to face she would not recognize it.Nor does she suspect, as she sits in her prison apartment, peeping out through the lattice at themonotonous drift of the street life, that her sisters in far-away Michigan are organizing and raisingmissionary funds in her behalf.
