Here is our route on the Zephyr. Peggy and I  will meet up in Chicago on Wednesday, stay over nite at the Palmer House and then catch the Zephyr the next day for a 2.5 day trip across the Western United States.  AMTRAK riders say this route is the most beautiful train trip there is. We are looking forward to hanging out in the big domed excursion cars so we can watch all the scenery across the prairies and through the mountains. Hopefully we can shoot some good video with Peggy's new little flip cam.
