AMTRAK'S SUNSET LIMITED

LA to New Orleans via Southwest - Mile by Mile Window Guide

Never wonder, "What am I looking at?" as you ride Amtrak's Sunset Limited from Los Angeles to New Orleans. This is one of America's great scenic railway journeys. With this Sunset Limited route guide you won't miss a thing!

This fully updated Amtrak travel guide 2026 is a mile-by-mile train window guide that explains exactly what you're seeing outside your window. It lets you know when to pay attention, what matters, and recount how the Southwest, Texas and Louisiana are so different. Once onboard, you'll have the answers to the question nearly every passenger asks: How can I make the most of my time on the train?

Written by seasoned international rail traveler Thomas Baker, this guide turns long hours onboard into continuous discovery. Landmarks appear as you reach them, hidden details come into focus, and stories unfold that most passengers never notice and miss completely. It's the ideal activity for a long train ride that tells you what's on the left and right sides of the train.

See what most passengers miss as they pass interesting places. What looks like empty scenery becomes a rich narrative of amazing history, culture, scenic wonders, and inspiring stories, from the glamour of Hollywood and Los Angeles to the jazz-soaked streets of New Orleans, across vast deserts, through New Mexico, into the steamy swamps of Cajun Country.

This deeply researched American rail travel guide brings the route alive with hundreds of short vignettes featuring:

·       Native American resilience, Geronimo, and the Apache and Navajo Nations

·       Spanish missions, the Alamo, and the American Borderlands

·       Railroad pioneers, Western legends, and new industries

·       Gunfighters, miners, and cowboys of the Old West

·       Jazz, Cajun culture, pirates, ports, and the musical soul of New Orleans

Don't let these stories pass in silence!

Created for curious travelers, rail enthusiasts, and lovers of slow travel, this is one of the most comprehensive Sunset Limited route guides available. Inside you'll find detailed train travel USA information, route maps, snapshots of points of interest, historical insights, trivia, and notable people from each stop.

It's a must-have route guide for anyone passionate about American train journeys, railroad travel, and Great American railroad journeys.

Whether riding the Sunset Limited or exploring from your armchair at home, this guide helps you understand where you are and why it matters.
