Missed it by a day.   Reported this afternoon at Albany.  No idea if going to NYP or not ?  Maybe the cold / hot  weather facility ?

May have arrived today on CAL Z at Chicago.  There is speculation as to route that it will take out of CHI.  and its destination ? ?

I must be missing something here.  What is Amtrak 603?
