The NYC'S 20TH CENTURY LIMITED departed Chicago's LaSalle Street Station enroute to New York. Several blocks west, Pennsylvania's BROADWAY LIMITED made her departure from Union Station. Both trains traveled south before reaching Englewood Station at 63rd Street, where they would stop, pick up passengers, then start their fabled 'race' eastward along parallel tracks. I would imagine this was an impressive spectacle to behold. For those of you who may have had the opportunity to witness this firsthand, please inform me: which train usually 'won?' And exactly how many miles did the two passenger trains run side-by-side on what has been referred to as the 'Chicago Speedway'? Any information you can share would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! <br /> <br />Andrew
