Don't forget about Battle Creek and Pontiac.
Relative to CUS, I don't think the Chicago work will take place anytime soon, for for an update, there is a link to the newly released long range plan in the recent Trains Magazine newswire. They are talking about some short term renovations to the station tracks, adding two new tracks on the river side of CUS. Eventually they want to make the platforms a little wider by eliminating some of the old mail loading areas.
Of all of Amtrak's hundreds of stations and "am-slabs," Chicago is in the worst shape, with chunks of concrete falling from the ceilings on a daily basis.
