DescriptionSunset Limited locomotive 1895.JPG	Promotional piece for the Southern Pacific Railway's Sunset Limited. The train started in 1894. There is a complete set of these for each of the six portions of the consist. This was also possibly a child's toy in addition to being a promotional item for the railway and its new train. On the back is a description of each car; they all indicate they are exact depictions of what the actual train and cars looked like. One of the backs of one of the sleeping cars says the train was lit by pintsch gas, so this is an indication of the age of these items. There is also an 1895 copyright notation on the composite (baggage/bath-barber/lounge) car.
