I rode both the Broadway Limited (via the P&W) and the Capitol Limited (via Rochester) several times in both directions between Chicago and Pittsburgh in the 1990's.

I did some further research and I stand corrected.  It DID operate over the P&W, until 30 October 1994, when the PRR route through Rochester became operative.  My apologies to Bob for doubting his version!

  and out the p&w west...
