Presidents and First Ladies Trivia

[RJNorton]

Those are definitely good and logical guesses, Gene and Roger.

But Kudos to Bill - indeed it was Warren Harding. Harding died in California and his remains came back to Washington via train. The funeral train departed San Francisco on August 3, 1923, and arrived in Washington on August 7, 1923.

There is a short film on Harding's funeral train coming through Chicago. Previous to asking this question I had never seen the clip before.
