Pere Marquette streaminer, 1946

 First postwar streamliner featured locomotives with painted stripes to match the fluted stainless steel passenger cars from Pullman Standard.  

 Pere Marquette was a French Jesuit missionary who founded Michigan's first European settlement, Sault Saint Marie."Hmmmm, let's name a train after him!"
