Its lines stretch from Montreal in eastern Canada to Vancouver on the Pacific Coast, with extensions into the US as far as Chicago, New York, Detroit and Philadelphia. Over the years, the CP also owned and operated an airline, steamships, ocean ships, lake steamers and hotels, but it has divested itself of these interests. For auction is a great brochure issued by the CP and dated 1940. It is titled "Low-Cost All-Expense Tours in the Canadian Rockies". The CP offered these tour packages to generate passenger traffic and tourism for its hotels. Destinations included Banff and the Banff Springs Hotel, the Banff National Park, Lake Louise, Emerald Lake, and the Columbia Icefield Highway area. Stays of varying durations ranged from 2 days ($37.50 per person) to 6 days ($74.50 per person), plus transpiration and meals. Detailed itineraries are provided for each stay duration. The brochure includes photos of these areas, descriptions of facilities and attractions, dates of feature events in 1940, a map of the CP system, information on other CP travel services to the Orient and Europe, and a listing of CP travel agents. This publication measures appx 9x4 inches unopened, opens to appx 9x8 inches, and contains 16 pages; it is printed on a heavy-duty semi-glossy paperstock. Best yet, it appears to have had little if any use and is in excellent condition, in spite of being now some 70+ years old. There are no rips or tears, no writing or markings, and no spills or smears -- and the binding is secure with all pages firmly in place. A neat item for the collection of some CP railfan.
