For our annual trip we had planned to take Empire Builder #28/8 from Columbus WI to Chicago, Il. We are connecting to the Capital Limited that leaves at 6:40pm. If the Empire Builder will be on time on December 26th it will arrive at 3:55pm and we would have plenty of time to catch the Capital. My questions are: #1 - What are the chances the EB #8/28 will be less than 2 hours late December 26th? #2 - If we decide to get a ride to the Milwaukee Airport station and take the Hiawatha how much of a problem will we have hauling our checked bags? Leaving a day early is not an option.
Last year we waited until the last moment and had to hire a car to take us to Chicago. The driver could not find the station, we almost missed our train and the trip cost us a fortune. Hopefully a bit of pre-planning will make this trip start smoother.
