3-2 seating suggests cars originally operated by Metro North.  The power has been a P42 in the past and the train operated from Track 1 in CUS.

The daily commute is part of everyday life but I get two rides a day out of it. Paul

Polar Express Equipment

I notice that Rail Events Productions is operating their Polar Express trains out of Chicago Union Staion with cars having 3 & 2 seating. It also says on its website "Powered by Amtrak". Can anyone tell me where the equipment comes from and where the train operates to from Union Station. Pls don't say "the North Pole".
