Cool.
I have ridden Amtrak's California Zephyr train several times round trip between Reno, Nevada and Chicago in a sleeper.
Today that train that runs from LA to Dallas is the "Texas Eagle".
BTW: That SP Daylight steam engine is kept in Portland, Oregon and it is going to do a very rare cross country journey from Portland, Oregon to central Michigan and back to Portland.
I am getting shots of it as it runs from Chicago to Durand, Michigan in July.

Thanks. I used to be more of a rail fan. in '77 I took the train from LA to Dallas. 44 hours on what would have been the "Super Chief" and "Lone Star"

The southern pacific Steam train that ran in the 1940's or so that was called the Coast Daylight and it was an orange steam engine.
Today Amtrak runs a long distance train called the "Coast Starlight". The Coast Starlight runs round trip from Los Angeles, California to Seattle, Washington. The Coast Starlight has run since the 1970's. The southbound Coast Starlight is train 11 and the northbound is train 14. My youtube name is for Amtrak's southbound Coast Starlight train number 11.
Thank you for making this. I am fascinated with Chicago, and always enjoy being there. I will be going back in less than a week, and wanted to watch other people having their personal adventures. I am glad you took wonder from the city.

What does your kid think about this?

They are barely interested in the videos they are in, let alone the one they are not in.
