If you read Fred Frailey's book "Zephyrs, Chiefs And Other Orphans", about the first five years of Amtrak, it provides an excellent layout of what equipment was being used on each Amtrak train. In creating my train .gif files, I often refer to this book.

In addition to the Coast Daylight, Amtrak was using the ex-SP automats on the Sunset Limited up into mid-1972. The train also had a diner-lounge or diner (the ex-SP Sunset "Pride Of Texas" or "Audubon" cars) and a former Santa Fe bar-lounge/dormitory.
