Hi hi hi HI! question, if that's alright!

I'm thinking of planning a trip from Chicago to San Diego, do you know if a simple and effective route exists? And if it would be comfortable?

I was looking up flights, just for reference, and it would cost $1000 for two round trip tickets!!!! That's bananas and I hate planes!

Thank you! Have a great day!!!!

This will be over 1000 dollars but the route is California Zephyr -> coast starlight -> pacific Surfliner. It should be comfortable though

Hey, so (part of) my bucket list includes traveling the entire length of the California Zephyr and the entire length of the Sunset Limited. Getting to Chicago is a bitch from Atlanta (Atl-DC-chicago), but doable. Also, getting from New Orleans to Atlanta is doable (pretty sure that one is a straight shot). The question mark comes in with going from the California end of the Zephyr to the California end of the Sunset. What would be the easiest way to get from Emeryville (San Fransisco) to Los Angeles?

(Other bucket list items include the Southwest Chief, the Pacific Surfliner, and the Maple Leaf routs, but I can do them in batches. Zephyr is the biggest want)

The easiest in my mind is to take the Coast Starlight to Emeryville
