Amtraks Cardinal stops at Dyer running about 2hrs late. I figured I would tape while I picked up my buddy Chris(AMTK24) for a day of railfanning. Note the special cars at the rear.

  • I would chop off the beginning of the video where you are just waiting. Just a suggestion :)

  • @MSNWindows7 well I have started recording my vids later thinking it is to early, but then something good happens that could have been on tape or something comes over the radio. Thanks :)

  • I rode the Cardinal from Charlettsville Va to Chicago IL. and the Zepher to Denver Co. back in 00 . It was a birthday gift from my girl friend , 1st class . What a great way to travel . Sounded like a DC-3 flying over at 2:30 or something old like that .

  • @ifab2holeshot yeah it is a great way to travel. If I possibly can, I try to travel train everywere I go. It is the best and coolest way. I really don't know. Wouldnt doubt it cause the Lansing IL airport is only like 5 mins from there. thanks for watching :)

  • Those two Private Cars are the Braddock Inn and NYC 38 both Cars owned by the Collis P. Huntington Railroad Historical Society in which I am a member of.  Very nice cars.

  • Yes they are. Thanks for watching :)

see all

  • @howardkevinm Yeah, I would recommend the faster Lake Shore Limited or Capitol Limited to NYC and D.C.

  • well thats its normal consist, but it just had a couple of private cars thats why it probably looks longer than usual. Normally were the private cars were, there is two horizon coaches on the cardinal that get put on in Indianapolis.

  • so weird, i love the cardinal and i havent seen it that long in a very long time

  • I guess the only people who would ride it the entire route are people who just want to see the country and don't care about getting there very fast. When I was on the lakeshore limited we were flyin' I think we were doing 79 for most of the trip.
