Ultimate 8-State Train Adventure: Discover the American West’s Grand Canyon, Pacific Coast & Petrified Forests
Amtrak’s Southwest Chief train route travels between Chicago and Los Angeles, stopping in eight states along the way. There’s nothing like a train trip through the American West to take you back in time. As you travel through the vast expanse, it’s all too easy to imagine a lone cowboy riding in the distance or a group of Natives rounding up a herd of buffalo. This nostalgic feeling is alive and well on theAmtrak Southwest Chief route, which travels between Chicago and Los Angeles on a less-visited course.
