Judy arrrives to meet her dream man....becomes a Harvey Girl.
Sings Acheson, Topeka and the Santa Fe.
The house in Las Vegas, NM is still standing but basically abandoned last time I was there in 1995. Las Vegas is also home to the Rough Rider Museum. The one in Barstow is a railroad museum and Route 66 museum. Did you know all the linen was washed in Kansas City? They had a coffee cup code to speed up serving when the passengers arrived. They had a young man at the tracks hitting a large Chinese gong when the train approached to warn the staff. Just a few of the things I remember.
People associated with Harvey House hated that movie! Even as a musical it disappointed those involved.
Stayed there once on my last true family vacation with the wife and kids. At the time, the hotel had some pretty creepy artwork hanging in the halls. I loved it; the kids were scared stiff!
Harvey House was really the first franchise in the USA...from what I’ve read about them...
I looked forward to reading a historical article, not hyperbolic feminist bombast. Too bad.
