COAST LINE PHOTO OF THE MONTH
James Lancaster graciously submitted a series of photos from December 1965, featuring the Coast Daylight stopped at San Luis Obispo. You can view his photos in full resolution in the Cuesta and San Luis Obispo galleries.

COAST LINE FACT OF THE MONTH
 
Hamburgers on SP Passenger Trains were actually the idea of SP President Donald Russell himself.
One time at a brief station stop,  he observed passengers rushing off the train 
to locate a hamburger stand before having to reboard.  Thereafter, he insisted
all SP trains include hamburgers for his passengers.
