Great trip report. The last time I had a room on the CL was when I had a broken rib, among other things, so a trip up to the diner was too hard. Enjoyed hearing how nice it was for you.

I was the train 84 the day you were on train 95. Must have passed each other around Wilmington! Didn't notice a train with a P42 leading though. You often can't tell what's leading when you pass a train at track speed on the NEC though.
Great report and great pictures, all of them. The clouds over Chicago actually help. Like a photo of the Golden Gate Bridge.I also like the shot of the river framing the curtain rightly in your room.

Great Pictures. A couple comments:
The fence on the RR bridge at Harpers Ferry is for a pedestrian walkway - the only RR bridge I know of with a sidewalk.
If you like CUS's great hall, you would marvel at the Utica, NY station.

Wow, think Ill have to get off the train next time Im in NY tosee this one, its spectacular! Can passengers use it or is it a resturant or lounge like so many of the grand old stations?
