The Chicago to Los Angeles Southwest Chief is the last of a great passenger rail legacy dating back to the days of the Santa Fe's Chief service.  With a few minor exceptions, the Southwest Chief follows the path of the Santa Fe's premier passenger trains including the Chief, the Super Chief, the Grand Canyon, and the all Coach El Capitan.
 
This page is filled with personal vacation experiences of people who have used the Southwest Chief to reach some truly unique Western United State attractions.  We hope that you enjoy this page and that you will share some of your own experiences with us.
