BTW those are post 1958 stops. It stopped at many fewer places (namely Fort Wayne only between Englewood and Harrisburg before then)
Indeed you are correct. I stand corrected. I did not realize how many more stops the
Broadway Limited had compared to the
20th Century Limited even before 1958. I know after 1958 in terms of stops it became a pretty pedestrian train even though it remained Sleeper only.
20th Century was strictly non stop between Croton and Englewood apparently, though I am sure it had a service stop or two on the way.
Incidentally I noticed that for 10 Sleepers ( 9 NYP - CHI and 1 through to LAX via the Super Chief) the
Broadway Limited had a twin unit Diner. I guess the general rule of 5 Sleepers to a Diner that seems to be followed by VIA for the
Canadian has along history!
One interesting tidbit I noticed is that Indian Railways pretty much manages a erstwhile
Broadway Limited like schedule (similar distance, similar running time) for the New Delhi - Howrah (Kolkata)
Rajdhani Express with some 11 stops en-route these days with a 18 car train pulled by a single electric engine (all Sleeper, no Dining Car, usually two Pantry Cars, food served at ones accommodation). The ostensibly non-stop Duronto Express is a tad bit faster, but has huge amounts of padding all over the place.
