The Pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela is a centuries old trek across northern Spain done by following "The Camino de Santiago", the road to Santiago. Before February of 2001 I had not heard of "The Camino" nor of the Pilgrimage. By the end of October of that year I was in Santiago after completing the walk myself. I thought that when I reached Santiago my journey was over but I see now that my journey started way before I got to Spain and still has not ended.

Trains
Time, 1955
Back when trains were still the dominant means of cross country travel, although the railroads must have known the end was coming.
The Union Pacific Railroad has been operating since 1862. You will find a present day UPRR system map here.
