Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 (edited) What a time to have lived! Not many fat people back then. Lots of activity. And no fast-food joints all around. Stagecoach travel took 3 or 4 weeks to cross parts of the USA. With the first trains connecting America, it took 3-1/2 days. The old wagon trains took 4 or 5 months to cross only a portion of America. All these times vary. But they are general times listed on the internet. I bet when the wagon trains came upon a river, they enjoyed a bath! Or not, who knows? No early warning for weather or Indians attacking. And not just Indians, non-Indian outlaw gangs would attack them. Photo: LOC <><><><> Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Archival Collection Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Small Gauge Film Archive Daniel D.
