Southwest Chief
The Southwest Chief is a train route operated by Amtrak in the Midwestern and Southwestern United States. It runs from Chicago, Illinois to Los Angeles, California, passing through Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and California.
The Southwest Chief is the successor to the Super Chief, a train run by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway (AT&SF) until 1971 and later by Amtrak until the AT&SF forced Amtrak to stop using the name due to a decline in quality after Amtrak took over the AT&SF's passenger trains.
