All the points of travel start at New York City.
By 1930 with the advent of railroads, What took 2 weeks in the 1800s, was now only 1 day.
Can you imagine? Now it’s hours.

Travelling is now faster and more affordable before people had to take days traveling to reach the desired location, now only a matter of hours to get where we want.
