[quote user="ndbprr"] What were the station stops heading out of Chicago for the Panama Limited and others heading south?  Thank you [/quote]The 1962 fall timetable showed that Train #5, the all Pullman Panama Limited, had scheduled stops at Chicago (63rd St., Woodlawn), Homewood, Champaign, Centralia, Carbondale, North Cairo, Fulton, Memphis, Grenada, Canton, Jackson, Brookhaven, McComb, Hammond, New Orleans (Carrollton Avenue) and, of course, New Orleans Union Station.  It would also stop on notice at Kankakee, Matton, Effingham, Dyersburg, Batesville, and Durant.The St. Louis section had scheduled stops at Belleville, Pinckneyville, Du Quoin, and Carbondale where it joined the Chicago section.  The scheduled equipment included four Chicago to New Orleans sleepers, one Chicago to Jackson, Mississippi sleeper, and one St. Louis to New Orleans sleeper.  It also had a parlor car from Chicago to Carbondale.  It had a twin unit diner from Chicago to New Orleans as well as a Lounge Club car from Chicago to New Orleans.  I don't have the information about the other trains.
