This is a wonderful idea! Do you have a sleeper car? The best part.of the Zephyr will be the between SF and Denver. You'll have a great time in the observation car looking through the canyons, and listening to the narration.

There's a ton of stuff to see on both sides of the train to see for yourself ... but 1 tip to get lucky: Between Winter Park and Denver, find a window on the left side of the train. You'll be rewarded with the most beautiful view from a train everhttps://mobile.twitter.com/johEckert/status/1053799306967298049 …

I’ve done that ride and it is great! They have people from the Sacramento train museum join and ride until Reno while they talk about the history of the railroad on that stretch of the Sierras.

Glenwood Canyon’ll be a highlight. Just drove through it twice today. (See photo in my timeline where I was stuck for roadwork)

I have wanted to take the train from Seattle to Chicago during the winter for about a year now so I am pretty jealous

Took this one a number of years ago, but from MSP to east side of Casacdes. Lots of ND during the day, but still a great ride.
