Daylight: The Most Beautiful Train in the World. Hosted by television actor Michael Gross this program provides the history of the Daylight which ran between Los Angeles and San Francisco for 34 years from 1937
to 1971. The program features interviews with people who rode, operated, and managed this Southern Pacific train. Recently-discovered professional 16mm color film provides viewers with brand new images of one of America's most famous streamlined, steam locomotive hauled trains. Amtrak's current Coast Starlight is also included in the program.

  • Man I love that intro, it adds a certain romance to it

  • @blitzspeer Totally agree blitzspeer. The Norfolk and Western Class J is by far the most beautiful locomotive ever built. Nothing comes close.

  • Epic videos! I have shot boat loads of videos of trains on the Coast Line over the years and vids are on my youtube account. I even went out to Michigan and shot the Daylight Steam engine out there in year 2009, its an amazing steam engine.

  • @blitzspeer noooo!!! the daylight is waaaayyyyyyy more prettier!

  • Pretty but I still think the Norfolk and Western JS4-8-4 is prettier and the most beautiful train ever built.

  • @TauKotoni yes but the tickets are hard to get !!!

  • Can you book a ride on this train?
