How to ride the California Zephyr Amtrak route
It made me 
"Good but could be better"
How I did it: Bought a ticket and rode the train from Emeryville, CA to Chicago. The Emeryville Station is outside of San Fran so you'll need to either take a bus from San Fran station or stay somewhere near Emeryville and get a taxi. We drove the Pacific Coast Highway from LA and was able to pick up the car in LAX and return the car to Emeryville (it was Hertz).
Lessons & tips: Book early and definitely get a room if you're looking to ride it the whole way. Bring some snacks/fruits. The food on board isn't great and the stops are too short to be able to go buy things midway. And definitely definitely bring a camera!
