At bottom left, an inset extends coverage to Alaska, and another inset at bottom right shows southern Texas and Mexico. An alphabetical table of Burlington Route stations appears at top right. The title incorporates a striking railroad logo with a train at center surrounded by a track and a list of various destinations.
