THANKS! We'll be passing through my hometown (Milwaukee) on the Empire Builder on the 22nd. As a kid I lived on Winchester off Bay Street and in my H.S. years in the Oak Creek area. What is the snow outlook in the area?

 

[Trogdor]

It just snowed heavily today. As far as I know, it should still be on the ground on Tuesday.

Note that the 5809 is frequently substituted with a Standard Sleeper.

A Standard Sleeper?

For us Southern folk that only see snow once ever 10 years or so

By Standard Sleeper I meant a regular sleeper with the Deluxe Rooms and Family Room, not a Trans Dorm.
