Crofutt's Trans-Continental Tourist's Guide is a travel guidebook published in New York in 1872 by George A. Crofutt, aimed at passengers on the Union Pacific and Central Pacific railroads crossing from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The four pictures are landscape wood engravings of a railroad bridge over the Missouri, a hanging rock in Echo Canyon, a rocky valley, and a Union Pacific train crossing a trestle, drawn in dense hatched lines that a designer could borrow for vintage railway or western scenery treatments.
