The Pennsylvania Railroad ran an express train from New York to Atlantic City
named the "Nellie Bly." Some joked that the routing -- via Trenton and
Bordentown then almost to Camden almost duplicated her round-the-world trip,
especially compared to the more direct route of the Central RRof NJ's "Blue
Comet."
One wonders haw many people taking the Nellie Bly train in the late 50s and
early 1960s even knew who Nellie Bly was?
Cheers,
