 The Super Chief was one of America's best-known passenger trains. At the time, this modern mainline train was nicknamed ?the train of the stars?, as it often carried celebrities between Chicago, Illinois, and Los Angeles, California.
 
 The Super Chief was the first diesel-electric passenger train to cross America, eclipsing the Chief as the flagship of the Santa Fe company. The Super Chief left Chicago station for its maiden voyage on 12 May 1936. The train was in service from 1937 to 1974!
