Comments moved from the article  I removed this from the article to move it here The heavy line shown on the Grand Canyon Route map above is incorrect for the San Francisco Chief I dont know how to edit it out  The San Francisco Chief was unique from most Santa Fe transcontinental passenger trains as it ran on the southern main line  The southern main branched from the north main in Emporia Kansas It passed through Harper  Kiowa Kansas Alva and Shattuck Oklahoma Amarillo TX and Clovis New Mexico  It rejoined the northern main near Dalies New Mexico  The San Francisco Chief departed from a totally true southern mainline route by diverting through major urban areas like Wichita Kansas  It is unknown if it got to Wichita by going through Newton KS or if it went through Florence Peabody El Dorado  Augusta  There is some excellent video of the San Fransisco Chief in Amarillo TX on the DVD Santa Fe Odyssey Volume  distributed by Green Frog Productions LTD
