There is also a listing of Stage Lines and a long alphabetical listing of principal points in the West detailing the best way to get there and the distances between. It then has a description of all the individual (North) Western states and territories. It has 62 pages and measures 8 by 4 inches." Although the cover of this timetable is missing, it appears most likely to have been published by the Union Pacific Railroad.
