Greetings all,

planning a trip from Syracuse to Denver in June. Anybody have any thoughts or experiences with the eastbound Zephyr to Lakeshore limited connection in Chicago? There's only about 4 hours between them, but not sure of the Zephyr's performance.

If it were the Chief, I wouldn't worry, in fact, am taking that trip to LA and back in april.

Thanks.
 
The Zephyr runs over the U.P. for most of its route so it's really a guessing game. The good thing is that Amtrak will guarantee your connection in Chicago, meaning that if you miss the connection it could involve bussing to catch up with it or a hotel stay in Chicago at Amtrak's expense. I wouldn't worry about it - just book the trip and see what happens. Amtrak will take care of you in any case.
