Street sellers hawked a variety of radical and anti- war newspapers along the March route; the Militant was probably the Rally's best- seller.
Many of the buses carrying demonstrators to Washington arrived after the rally had begun. They discharged their passengers near the Capitol Building on the side opposite the rally site. These passengers and others who arrived at Union Station on special trains never joined in the march down Pennsylvania Avenue, but went straight to the rally.
