Amtrak's Southwest Chief will leave you with a lifetime of memories of the spectacular beauty and unique flair of the Southwest, from a route that was blazed by Native Americans and followed by conquistadors, fur trappers, settlers -- and now you.
There are marvelous sights throughout this journey: Los Angels and the famous Cajon Pass; the fertile fields of Kansas, the great Missouri and Mississippi Rivers, the famous Chicago skyline.
But it's the dazzling landscapes of Arizona and New Mexico that will leave you absolutely astonished. You'll see pueblos hundreds of years old. Fantastic lava flows and geological formations. Breathtaking canyons -- some just a few feet wider than your train. Distant views of towering mountains, burning red in the southwestern sunlight.
And with Amtrak you can stop to explore any of them -- plus so many resorts and attractions of every description we couldn't begin to name them -- for a southwestern vacation you'll never forget.
