Southwest Chief Amtrak journey

[VIDEO] The weather has been nice in Chicago over the holidays. So perhaps it's not that important to share this video of another trip report this time from the YouTube channel Dylan's Travel Reports. Dylan takes Amtrak from Chicago to Los Angeles, California on the Southwest Chief.

You will hear him only once on this video so I get the idea he's from the UK. What he sees in the American southwest he probably won't see in England, Wales, or Scotland. Of course, I've yet to see the geographical wonders of the world beyond the USA.

The Southwest Chief I have taken twice over the year and both times have experienced an interest journey heading west through Iowa, Missouri, Kansas into Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona. Then reaching the Chief's final destination at Los Angeles Union Station. The final destination terminal is a wonderful example of art deco/Spanish colonial/mission revival architecture. Of course it doesn't entirely beat the architecture of Chicago's Union Station. You'll be able to see both in the video.

Anyone planning a vacation anytime soon?
