In the 1950s, the American railroad system was undergoing a massive shift. For decades, passengers, especially wealthy college students traveling back and forth for semesters and holidays, relied heavily on “Redcap” porters at train stations to carry, hoist, and manage their heavy trunks and suitcases.

By 1958, local railway stations near Smith College drastically cut back or entirely eliminated their Redcap services. Suddenly, young women accustomed to having their bags handled for them were forced to lug their own heavy, mid-century luggage (which lacked the convenience of modern wheels).
