It must have been a lot of work back then keeping that jointed rail so smooth!

Looks like it might be the Denver Zephyr.

Like the song says..."A Silver thread gliding down the Rails" .

I agree it's the Denver Zephyr, since as a morning photo, the time is right for the arrival of the overnight schedule. Also the train is a lengthy one, made up of one of the Q's, pre-war, articulated Zephyr sets, and the DZ was not re-equipped with brand-new Budd cars (and domes) until 1956.

Thanks guys. I changed the remarks. I appreciate any and all comments and/or corrections!

To paraphrase the 60s folk song ... "Where have all the reefers gone, long time passing ?"
