Train Attendant
I will be taking the Cardinal this summer during July 2009 from Prince, WV to Chicago Union Station to make a connection with the Empire Builder to head out to Essex, MT. I am showing a 3 hour and 40 minute (?) layover at Chicago between the "hopeful" arrival of the Cardinal and the departure of the Empire Builder. I have read everywhere about the Cardinal being horrible about being on time to everywhere. I was just wondering what the likelihood of not making this connection would be.
Also, what is the routine when a train is delayed causing someone to not make a connecting train?
Essentially, if the connection isn't made, the whole vacation would be shot.
