Finally I depart tonight for my trip out to Fullerton. I will take the Capitol to Chicago and switch there to the Chief.

I have done this trip numerous times but of course every trip is different. Fortunately, I have had fairly good luck with the crews and conditions on both trains.

This will only be about my second experience with the simplified dining service. I was very disappointed with it on the Starlight a while back. Hopefully my reaction will be more positive this time. I know that I must lower my expectations.

Will offer a full trip report upon return.

Pittsburgh will be my start and end point , by the way.

Reminds me of the old joke:
Customer: I'd like to buy a return [round trip] ticket please.
Ticket seller: Where to?
Customer: Why, here of course!

Enjoy the trip.

Have a great trip, and do "TalkRR" afterward--tell us all the high points (and any low ones, hope there aren't any!)
