Last I heard, there were possibly 6 passengers connecting to 21. Dick seems to think he will be spending the night in Chicago tonight and taking 21 tomorrow.
I do not believe Amtrak guarantees any connection in CLE between the Cap and LSL? If you booked such a connection separately, you would need to find your own place to stay for the night/day and night in CLE
They do. I know of a few people who have traveled from PGH to stations in upstate NY this way, and it's a valid connection in Arrow.
I stand corrected. I tried a PGH to BUF a few years ago and it would not compute. But looks like you can do that today. In re; to previous question, there are plenty of interesting things to do in Cleveland if you miss your connection. R&R Hall, Science Center, Museum of Art. And you can even hop a ride on the RTA for a nice ride out to the airport.
Of course you get to CLE just before 3am on the 29...I stand corrected. I tried a PGH to BUF a few years ago and it would not compute. But looks like you can do that today.

Despite the very late delays of the past several days due to extreme cold weather, #49 arrived in Chicago over 3 hours late only once from January 1 through February 12. #49 even arrived early 29 days out of 46. So the odds of making the connection are good. The chances of a major snowstorm or severe cold snaps will fade in a few weeks as we get into March. Link to Amtrak Status Archive Database for #49 arrivals at CHI from Jan 1 through February 14.
Hopefully in Chicago proper this time. In Sept 2014 Amtrak hired a van to a cheap unbranded hotel along a highway about 20 miles west of Chicago.
But if you miss the 48 you will have an entire day the next day to check out all these suggested places.Of course you get to CLE just before 3am on the 29...I stand corrected.

I can't say for those cities, but I was on 50 a few years ago to CVS to connect to 19. Due to a freight derailment and bustitution, I did not arrive until about 3 am - 6 hours after 19's departure. I was told to continue to WAS where they will give me a room.
