Fresh food, well-groomed chefs, and stylish dining rooms were only part of Harvey's package it was the aura they created that was so captivating. Suddenly, after surging through mountain snow or sweltering heat, rail travelers halted at a surprising sight: a Harvey House arose out of nowhere and served them like royalty. Fine china, Irish linen . . . and, oh, the "Harvey Girls." Magical and romantic in a region still rough-edged and rowdy, these polished young servers made the Western rail dining experience a true pleasure. And their mystique still lingers.
