Chicago is one of the best starting points for rail holidays across the USA, with many of Amtrak’s most iconic long-distance routes using the beautifully restored Union Station.
- The legendary California Zephyr heads west through the Great Plains, climbing over the Rocky Mountains and on towards the Pacific Coast.
