Can't help but notice the Railway Express items: delivery truck plus all the suitcases stacked on one of the baggage carts.  Fantastic scene: foreground as well as background.

I always thought the MOP had the best name for their domes: "Planetarium Dome."

Thanks for the great photo.  I have memories of riding the eastbound Eagle from Denver to Geneseo, Kansas in the late 1950s.  There was a connecting train to Wichita that my mother, sister and I took.
