    In 1933, several options were available, most were not particularly useful and no really direct rail service.
    (1) Midland Valley #2 (motor car), Lv Tulsa 4:00pm, Av Ft Smith 1010pm. MP #117 Lv Ft Smith 304am, arrive Little Rock 805am

    (2)MKT #221 Lv Tulsa 545pm, av Muskogee 715pm. MKT #7 Lv Muskogee 1am, av McAlester 235am, no connection on RI until 823pm next evening.

    (3) drive from Tulsa to Claremore (33 miles), MP #115 Lv Claremore 638am, av Little Rock 250pm or MP #117 Lv Claremore 1215am, av LR 805am.

    (4) multiple schedules, Santa Fe Trailways (bus) Tulsa to Fort Smith (about 4.5 hours) and multiple connecting schedules Missouri Pacific Trailways Fort Smith to Little Rock.

    Hope that helps,
