[[File:Night session june 23 2011 033xRP - Flickr - drewj1946.jpg|thumb|upright=1|The restored [[Southern Pacific class GS-4]] [[Southern Pacific 4449|No. 4449]] (Daylight) operating in [[Tacoma, Washington]], in June 2011]]

After 26 years of service and traveling over {{convert|3000000|mi|km}}, the ''[[Pioneer Zephyr]]'' went to Chicago's [[Museum of Science and Industry (Chicago)|Museum of Science and Industry]]. The ''[[Flying Yankee]]'', the third streamliner to enter service, is undergoing restoration to operational condition. The ''Silver Charger'' locomotive of the ''[[General Pershing Zephyr]]'' trainset remained in service until 1966 and is also undergoing restoration.

In December 1974, the streamlined steam-powered [[Southern Pacific 4449]] "Daylight" came off an outdoor public display to undergo a restoration and re-painting that enabled it pull the ''[[Freedom Train#The 1975–76 American Freedom Train|American Freedom Train]]'', which toured the 48 [[contiguous United States]] as part of the nation's 1976 [[United States Bicentennial|Bicentennial]] celebration.<ref>
