Lark (train) : ウィキペディア英語版
Lark (train)

The ''Lark'' was an overnight passenger train of the Southern Pacific Company on the 470-mile run between San Francisco and Los Angeles. It became a streamliner in 1941 and was discontinued on April 8, 1968. The ''Lark'' ran along the same route as the ''Coast Daylight'' and was often pulled by a locomotive wearing the famous ''Daylight'' paint scheme of orange, red, and black.
==Overview==
After 1941 Southern Pacific trains 75 (northbound) and 76 (southbound) were deluxe all-room Pullman (sleeping car) trains between San Francisco and Los Angeles. The last two cars in each consist of the ''Lark'' ran along the east side of San Francisco Bay to Oakland and were known as the ''Oakland Lark''. The ''Lark'' was to overnight travelers what the ''Morning Daylight'' and ''Noon Daylight'' were to day travelers in the San Francisco–Los Angeles market: safe, reliable, deluxe transportation. The ''Lark'' was the only streamlined all-room sleeping car train to operate entirely within a single state and the only all-room train operating strictly on the West Coast.
The train's namesake, though neither nocturnal nor native to the New World, has historically symbolized the arrival of a new day, mainly through Chaucer (''The Knight's Tale'' of ''The Canterbury Tales'') and Shakespeare's sonnets which describe the lark's singing at first light.
