The "Daylight" was a series of passenger trains operated by the Southern Pacific Railroad between Los Angeles and San Francisco. The most famous of these was the "Coast Daylight," which offered breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean. The train's streamlined GS-4 class steam locomotives, with their distinctive skyline casings, were as famous as the train itself. The "Daylight" was a symbol of California's glamour and was a popular choice for tourists and celebrities alike.
