The play Railroads on Parade was featured at the 1939/40 New York World’s Fair. It told the story of railroad transportation progress from the 1820s until 1939, and into the future. The photo below depicts a “woman of the future” from the cast and can be found in the book Dawn of a New Day, published in 1980.
