Transportation

Transportation is important to talk about. Cars are not as available so you need to know how to get around. It is quite simple. You just need to know the right information. To get around in the 1920's you might want to know the following information.

A lot of people got around by using trains. Although it may not be the most convenient way to get around town, you could move around the state easily! The trains should be able to get you around if you give them a chance.

The airport was already opened by the 1920's. Although it may not be convenient to travel around El Paso by plane, you could still move around the country by plane. You might want to keep in mind that planes are still very new and a lot of people still don't trust flight travel.

Electric cars were around at the time. They were getting quite popular and were making a new name for home-town travel. They took the pain out of your feet and made travel much faster. If you do manage to get a hot ride in a car, don't expect to go sixty miles-per-hour. Most cars went only between fifteen and twenty miles-per-hour. So get ready, put on your seat belts, and get ready for a bumpy ride.

Another source of transportation is the obvious, walking. A lot of people prefer not to walk, but hey, think of it this way! Now, you get plenty of exercise while having loads of fun in El Paso! Anyway, El Paso was not as big in the 1920's so it should be much easier to walk around. So lace up your running shoes and get ready!
