I didn’t take many photos on the second day of the Zephyr ride.<\/p>\n

We stopped early in Reno, Nevada, where I got off the train and walked a little bit. There wasn’t a lot of time.\u00a0 There was one health conscious family that jogged up and down the length of the train to get exercise.\u00a0\u00a0 There wasn’t much to see at the Reno station.<\/p>\n

From Reno we headed up into the Sierra’s of California.\u00a0 It’s similar to Colorado, but it seemed like the main view out of either side of the train was trees.\u00a0 There were some exceptions.<\/p>\n
