This Washington Terminal Co. parlor car passenger check originates from the mid-20th century. The check, printed in blue ink on cream-colored paper stock, documents a passenger's journey from Washington, D.C., to Newark, NJ. Numbered 032884, the check indicates passage for two individuals in a parlor car, a class of service distinct from standard coach accommodations. While specific train and reservation details are not explicitly stated, the handwritten destination, "Newark, NJ," is present on the check. The Washington Terminal Co., responsible for its issue, played a significant role in the rail network of the nation's capital, facilitating transportation to East Coast destinations such as Newark, located within Essex County, New Jersey. The check exhibits signs of age, including creasing and discoloration, consistent with its age and handling. An accompanying image depicts a red square with a partially removed corner, possibly the residue of an affixed sticker or label. The relationship between this red square and the passenger check is undetermined. Further research may be required to establish any potential connection between the two. This item is relevant to the study of transportation history and provides insight into passenger rail travel during the period. The "Parlor Car" designation suggests a higher level of service offered by the Washington Terminal Co. This artifact is of potential interest to researchers and collectors interested in the history of transportation, the Washington Terminal Company, Washington, D.C., and Newark, NJ.
