I think, but not sure, they may keep this train in or near Altoona, PA.
Anyone know for sure?
Here is the current information coming across the wire on the return trip
for this train:

*Original info has it leaving Chicago approx. 8:00am Sunday. Latest info has
it arriving in Pittsburgh approx. 7:30pm Sunday evening. It was travelling
at Amtrak speeds or better on its outgoing trip, and there's no reason to
believe it won't be doing so on the return.
