Rode the Chief from Chicago to LA about 15 years ago. It was great. A few odd folks on board, but no mechanical issues back then. Great scenery on the La Junta CO to Albuquerque NM section. Also, you get to see Cajon pass from the train. We had some very fast running in Western Kansas. Pretty great memory. <br /> <br />We took the Chief to LA, the Starlight to Seattle and the Builder back to Milwaukee. What a circuit. All for $199.00 or about 3 cents / mile.
