A blast from our past
OVERSEA RAILROAD WILL OPEN MONDAY
 New York Time
Jan 21, 1912
Key West is rapidly filling up with visitors for the opening of the "oversea" railroad on Monday.
Every steamer is bringing its quota of passengers. There is much activity all over the city, and
decorators are busy embellishing the buildings.
