With vantage points inside the train and along the tracks, I captured the entire experience on the Southwest Chief, carefully edited from hours of footage over more than a year of filming. I hope you enjoy this video!
The adventure continues in California - be sure to check out my other videos documenting trains in the Los Angeles area:

This guy is pretty bad ass. Gets out the train to film then catches back up for interior shots!
-
I like how you kept the ambient background noise in. It really gave me the feeling of being there.

There's no other way to see America than on a comfy train!

Thanks for sharing your train 🚆 ride experience with us. I am definitely looking forward to taking some cross country train rides in the near future. I have enjoyed the ride from the comfort of my couch 🛋.

I took this train and it was a fantastic experience of a lifetime. We were treated like royalty. I saw magnificent scenery and I met very interesting people from all over the world.

I remember the trip I took with my parents on Amtrak's California Zepher. We left Chicago and got off at Reno Nevada. The trip continued by bus down through California making stops along the way. It was with a tour with Holiday Vacations out of Wisconsin. It was a wonderful trip. My parents and I had our own private sleepers. Only way to travel on such a long trip. It was back in October of 2002. Never will forget it. They're both gone now and I had a wonderful time traveling with my mom and dad. We flew home from Los Angeles. Would love to do it again.

Love this video. Thank you for the commentary! ✅✅✅

I love the departure through Chicago's South Side Neighborhoods. Every street looks alike full of stores, factories and apartments. This is America. It still looks the same as it did in the 70's when I worked there.

Every time I think I have exhausted Youtube for things I enjoy, I discover a new treasure, like this video. I will definitely watch everything you have. I feel like I am on the train itself. In these days of fear of covid, I have wanted to take a train trip, but didn't. Now I know where to go for an almost perfecg experience. You have done a wonderful job and I look forward to more of your videos. Thank you so much.

This is on my bucket list to take Amtrak around the country

I have watched this video many times. I will never see much of the western part of the US by plane or car again but I can enjoy the view for nothing at home watching these kinds of vids. Thanks!

This is the best video I have seen on The Southwest Chief, my favorite of the transcontinental Amtrak routes. It makes me want to instantly book a ride on it again! Thanks a lot! -- Mike

Brought back many memories of the trip from Chicago to Los Angeles that I made with my mother and sister in August of 1961, just before my 13th birthday. I love trains and loved the journey. Well done, Bobby!
