The Vancouver footage ends at around the one-minute mark with the barges in the harbor. Winnipeg, Manitoba is the next place. They must have taken the train across Canada. The Winnipeg scenes include the train station, streetcars, Roman-looking government building, and HBC building. After Winnipeg they show Wisconsin Avenue in Milwaukee. The big city with all the skyscrapers is Chicago. The Chicago scenes end with the fountain. Then they show Cleveland, beginning with the public square. The final city is Pittsburgh.

Stunning clarity, award winning clarity from film nearly a century old wow

At 2:28 is a Chicago & North Western passenger train (perhaps the "400") arriving at Milwaukee's C&NW station.

Quite the travelogue. Vancouver, Winnipeg, Toronto, Chicago?, Cleveland, Pittsburg.

Also...correct me if I'm wrong - and an unforgiving git for period accuracy...but as lovely as the music is, it's a a bossa nova - unknown in the 1940s in any of the places shown here. Fabulous and fascinating footage, though. Thanks.

Vancouver is only in the first two minutes. Not sure what other cities these are. Interesting footage though.

Perhaps a new title for this video is in order! Vancouver , Canada footage almost non -existent !!

3:21 Field Museum, Chicago

4:21 Cleveland Stadium (opened 1931 - demolished 1996) and Cleveland City Hall (opened 1916 - demolished ????)

Cool 😎 😊
