Reviving an old thread due to Harvey hitting Texas, and I'm seeing a possible reroute depending on if Amtrak will put a second engine at the other end of the train:
From El Paso, TX, follow ether UP or BNSF track up the Upper Valley to Albuquerque. Then follow to Southwest Chief's route to Chicago. (edit: had thought you had to switch again to a different line, the City of New Orleans line)
Short of logistics, think it would work?
