- Golden_Rocket_(train) abstract "The Golden Rocket was a proposed named passenger train of the Rock Island (CRIP) and Southern Pacific (SP) railroads. In the 1940s, the Rock Island and Southern Pacific Railroads planned on jointly-introducing a high-speed, tri-weekly passenger train that would run between Chicago, Illinois and Los Angeles, California. Two 11-car consists were to have been placed into service on the new line, one owned by the CRIP and the other by the SP. However, just as Pullman-Standard neared completion on the Rock Island trainset in 1947, and in the midst of an aggressive advertising campaign, the Southern Pacific abruptly withdrew from the project. Rock Island took delivery of its rolling stock: a baggage-dormitory car, three coaches, a coffee shop-bar-lounge car, four sleeping cars, and a sleeper-lounge-observation car (with barbershop). The Rock Island consist for the Golden Rocket: Baggage-dormitory #820 Coach Valle Verde Coach Valle Vista Coach Valle Mar Coffee-shop lounge El Café Diner El Comedor 4-double bedroom, 4-compartment, 2-drawing room sleeper La Quinta 22-roomette sleeper La Costa 12-double bedroom sleeper La Jolla 12-double bedroom sleeper La Palma 2-double bedroom, 1-drawing room sleeper buffet lounge-observation La MiradaThe proposed Southern Pacific consist for the Golden Rocket that was never built: Baggage-dormitory Coach Valle Rio Grande Coach Valle del Sol Coach Valle Imperial Coffee-shop lounge El Café Frontero Diner La Fonda 4-double bedroom, 4-compartment, 2-drawing room sleeper Monte Chiricahua 22-roomette sleeper Monte Santa Rita 12-double bedroom sleeper Monte San Jacinto 12-double bedroom sleeper Santa Catalina 2-double bedroom, 1-drawing room sleeper buffet lounge-observation La GalleriaThe units arrived bearing the ill-fated Golden Rocket 's eye-popping livery, painted bright vermilion on top and bare stainless steel on the bottom. The cars also retained the festive Mexican-themed interiors originally intended for the Rocket. Rock Island immediately placed the cars into service on the Golden State, its other transcontinental train (jointly-operated with Southern Pacific).The Golden State 's cars and locomotives retained the Golden Rocket colors well into 1953, after which time the locomotives were repainted in the SP's well-known red-and-orange Daylight livery. Both railroads advertised the Golden Rocket. It was promoted as "America's Newest, Most Beautiful Streamliner"; instead, it became "the train that never was."".
