The Maricopa Station (MRC), serviced by the Sunset Limited and Texas Eagle routes, is the closest train station to Phoenix (30 miles south). Passengers destined for Phoenix must arrange their own transportation from Maricopa.
Three Phoenix stops (Airport (PHA), Greyhound Station (PHG), Metro Center Transit Station (PXN)) are serviced by throughway (bus) service from the Southwest Chief route.
Sunset Limited (New Orleans - San Antonio - Los Angeles)
Amtrak's Sunset Limited takes you between Louisiana and California, along our southern-most route. Settle back and watch the Bayou Country, Mexican border, southwestern deserts and California mountains pass by your window. Three trains depart weekly in each direction. Services on the Sunset Limited include Superliner Sleeping and Dining Car accommodations and spectacular views from the renowned Sightseer Lounge Car.
Texas Eagle (Chicago - St. Louis - Dallas - San Antonio - (Los Angeles)
Ready for a real adventure? Hop aboard the Texas Eagle, traveling daily between Chicago and San Antonio. Connecting service between San Antonio and Los Angeles is available three times a week via the Sunset Limited. Wind through the Land of Lincoln, across the Mississippi River, and through the Ozarks to Little Rock and the piney woods of East Texas. Onward to colorful, cosmopolitan Dallas, through Austin, and finally to San Antonio, where the legend of the Alamo and the Riverwalk attract people from all over the world.
Southwest Chief (Chicago - Albuquerque - Los Angeles)
Through the Heart of the West
Amtrak's Southwest Chief runs daily between Chicago and Los Angeles, through the vast expanse of the fabled American West. You'll be mesmerized by this region's beauty and allure. We'll take you across the mighty Mississippi through eight states—past wheat fields and ranches, missions and pueblos, mountains and deserts. Carving through curving canyon passages only a few feet wider than the train itself, you'll see spectacular landscapes and pristine vistas not visible from interstate highways.
