https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunbeam_(passenger_train) There are links to several photos on the wikipedia page, including the top one "Under a beautiful Texas sky, Southern Pacific's modern diesel powered streamliner "Sunbeam" train No. 14, southbound, rolls on a mile-a-minute schedule enroute from Dallas to Houston."

I recall that an issue of TRAINS magazine back in the day of steam-operated SP passenger had an article titled "The Sunbeams are Hustlers." That was because the same trains had both names. I am sorry I no longer have those old issues and don't recall the date of the issue in which the article appeared. If someone could locate the issue perhaps there is information there that would be useful to you.
