Amtrak's California Zephyr

[jdmifsud14]

This is an old video cause they mentioned the Desert Wind. And that train line is no longer existing.

travelling from chicago to san fran on the zephyr was the best way to travel across the US. the train staff were amazing, and way cheaper than flying. the scenery was amazing.

I grew up riding trains in Ukraine, ever since moving to the US I've always wanted to try trains but was put off by the fact that the trains here were 'coach' - not until I found out that there are sleeping cars, I got excited all over again. And the Zephyr is one train that is on my "to ride" list

Beats being anal searched in a airport terminal, to get on a cramped plane next to big cookie though.... Especially with prices for train cheaper for plane. And Train being more fuel efficient.

this video was made when amtrak treated customers more like a passenger and less like a $ sign. thats all we are now, a $ sign. with their new slogan "We'll get you there....EVENTUALLY!

The X2000 stayed in Chicago from mid 1994 until 1995 when the train was returned to Europe.
