A passenger timetable for the Burlington Route of the Colorado and Southern and Fort Worth and Denver Railway companies, 1961. The timetable is 4" x 9" and is titled "Burlington Route Time Tables."

An oncoming Burlington Route train is featured on the front cover, with red background. The reverse side of the timetable when folded has a train station index for the route, as well as an advertisement for Avis Rent-a Car. The inside includes more advertisements, a line map of the Burlington Route ranging from Chicago to San Francisco, timetables/schedules for passengers, and trip details.
