"It was 'not like an ordinary, human kind of train at all,' one writer proclaimed in 1906, four years after {the 20th Century train's} maiden run. It boasted electric lights before most American homes did. Its restaurant compared with the best in each city. There were on board tailors, valets, ladies' maids, stenographers, manicurists and a barber. Baths could be taken in either fresh or salt water." -

7. Ditch your watch.
