The San Francisco Overland

UP distinguished its premiere trains with distinctive branding. This included logos: roses for the Portland Rose, poppies for the Los Angeles Limited, and a Golden Gate sunset (influenced by partner Southern Pacific’s logo) for the San Francisco Overland. They also each had distinctive, usually art decoish type faces for the name of the train.

The Overland was also distinguished by having two lounge cars, where the Los Angeles Limited and other premiere heavyweight trains had only one. This booklet describes and pictures a club car at the front of the train and a lounge car in the middle of the train. Apparently by 1941, when the booklet was issued, the Overland no longer had the observation car on the rear of the train that was mentioned in the 1929 Book of Trains.

Otherwise, this booklet has similar information to yesterday’s 1937 Los Angeles Limited booklet: air conditioning, Pullman cars, barber & valet services, the diner, stewardesses, other trains on the same route, and passenger car diagrams in the back. While the Los Angeles Limited booklet featured the Challenger as the alternate train, this one presents the City of San Francisco and Forty-Niner, even though the latter would be cancelled a few months after this booklet was issued.

With yesterday’s Los Angeles Limited and today’s San Francisco Overland, I now have these little name-train booklets for all of Union Pacific’s premiere trains except for the Columbine. The Frontier Shack and Copper King booklets are in the same series.
