Homeward bound, this is the last leg of the trip. It has been really fun but I'm ready to go home.
This is a logo from the benches at the Sacramento Amtrak depot.
The California Zephyr pulling into Sacramento.
An old train car near Roseville California.
Going over the Sierra Nevada mountains.
Still a lot of snow up there.
Nice scenery.
Near Trukee California. I thought the highway framed the mountains nicely.
Stopped in Grand Junction Colorado.
Nearing the Rocky Mountains.
Here's some shots of Glenwood Canyon...
Around Glenwood Canyon the batteries in my camera died. I had anotther pack but when I opened it I realized I'd brought AAA instead of AA batteries. Oh well, we were less than 100 miles from Denver and it would be dark soon.
What a fun trip! I'm already planning next years. I think I'll go
Denver> Chicago on the California Zephyr;
Chicago> New Orleans on the City of New Orleans;
New Orleans> Los Angeles on the Sunset Limited;
Los Angeles> Seattle on the Coast Starlight;
Seattle> Chicago on the Empire Builder;
Chicago> Los Angeles on the Southwest Chief;
Los Angeles> Sacramento on the Coast Starlight;
Sacramento > Denver on the California Zephyr
Keep it West of Chicago so I can ride on Superliners exclusively.
