I'm back to my RR guides again. What is the current route taken by the Texas Eagle/Lincoln Service trains from STL north? -- what Miss. River bridge do they use nowadays (MacArthur, Eads, McKinley, or Merchants)?
Thanks for the info.

Normally (80+% of the time) I believe they use the MacArthur. However, depending on traffic they may occasionally use the Merchants.

Thanks, Eric -- I remember once several years ago, they typically used Merchants, since I remember followiwng the river to the north and passing almost directly beneath the Gateway Arch.

Yes, I remember that too, back in the '90s. However, my recent trips (since '04) have all been via MacArthur.
