Trip Report - Amtrak Lakeshore Limited + Southwest Chief (New York to Los Angeles with stop at Chicago)

Wanted to travel the USA from coast to coast back in February 2024. Decided on doing Lakeshore Limited from New York to Chicago then Southwest Chief from Chicago to Los Angeles. It is my first time taking a sleeper train, was definitely intimidated by the long duration but overall had a great time. Would highly recommend especially for all the rail fans out there!

Thanks very much for this. A picture is worth one thousand words and a well shot informational video one hundred thousand. So much valuable detail here. Well done!

Hint to all viewers: You must have have closed captions turned on to benefit from the detail included.
