Hollywood Outtakes: C&NW-UP City of Los Angeles Arrives in L.A.

This is the seventh in a series of videos drawn from a pool of 1940's-era Hollywood feature-film outtakes and stock shots. What film these might have been taken for, or when they were shot, is unknown. But the location is obviously Union Station in Los Angeles
0:00 This video begins with three well-dressed actresses in a scene on the station platform. You can see one of them occasionally look to the camera for direction.
0:47 Now it's train time. UP train no. 103, the City of Los Angeles, makes its entrance. At its head, an E6A-E6B-F3B combination of EMD diesels. Included in the consist is the Pullman Olvera (Pullman-Standard, 1941). Note: if you have more information on the train consist, please leave a comment.
2:07 The passengers are a well-dressed group, though this young fellow in the checked shirt looks pretty casual.
2:30 A woman in heels runs down the platform to enthusiastically greet a group of passengers.
3:03 While the other passengers are aware of the camera's presence, only this man in the dark fedora and double-breasted suit hams it up for a second, then thinks better of it. Youtube user
@wildswan60021 suggests that the gentleman could be Kay Kyser, the bandleader and radio personality.
The original film is silent, so I've added a period-appropriate soundtrack: a 1960's recreation of Glenn Miller's Tuxedo Junction, taken from Time-Life's album The Swing Era.
