From www.railphotoexpress.biz-- The New Jersey Seashore's Finest Train.-Extra Air Conditioned accommodations at the regular coach fare. Trains ran between New York and Atlantic City , N.J. - Inaugurated on February 21, 1929 by The Central Railroad of New Jersey the Blue Comet was designed to provide coach passengers with deluxe air conditioned equipment, accommodations, and service at a regular coach fare. As the Blue Comet made its way to Atlantic City, it was put on display for patrons, railfans, and local residents to see and inspect. Thousands of spectators along the line came to see the new train. This was in part due to a clever ad campaign via radio and newspaper which stoked the public's interest. Following its first arrival in Atlantic City, a formal dinner was held for railroad officials at the Hotel Dennis. Billed as the Seashore's Finest Train, It was a "Symphony in Blue."
