What a wonderful story. I'll think of her as I ride through the tunnel on Thursday.

Beautiful pictures

How will the coming shut down affect Amtrak services?

Thanks for a great video.

Traveled from Chicago to Omaha on the CZ last Sunday. It was my first trip in the transdorm roomette. I found the roomette to be the nicest one I have ever had. It was much less shopworn than any other room. I enjoyed all the horn blowing at the many crossings. The PA announcements were as...

I just received an email advising that the Sunday CZ will depart Chicago at noon. Does anyone know if they will serve lunch?

Thanks for all the responses. One other question, will the PA announcements be broadcast to the transdorm car?

I am looking forward to my first trip in the transdorm. It will be short unless there are big delays. I'm getting on in Chicago and off in Omaha. The only assistance I will need is getting the bed put together. I need to be able to lie flat for most of the trip.

Have a great trip.

I love the horn so that won't bother me.

Thanks. This will be my first time in the transdorm. I'm looking forward to a new experience. I guess it will be a long walk to the dining car but exercise is good.

I have a reservation for roomette 22 in car 0540 leaving Chicago next week. Can anyone tell me if this will be at the front of the train before the coach cars?

What does the abbreviation CT stand for?

I just received a similar revised ticket for #6 out of Omaha on July 22. Since the train is averaging almost 4 hours delay into Omaha I wonder why they only changed it 1 hour.

Thanks for the great trip report.
