Will the CZ be detouring over the Geneva Sub, and the SWC over the Chillicothe Sub?
 
As of 20:30 Track a Train shows #3 and #5 both heading toward Joliet. Railiner wins!
It's the most logical detour...keeps the train on its "home" BNSF rails, and only misses the stops between Chicago and Galesburg. They could have run the Illinois Zephyr that way too, if they wanted to....
 
#6(23) is sitting at the Ottumwa station now until 1:00 PM. I believe it's waiting for a new crew to become available.
