I'm considering an itinerary like
Thu 24 June, Springfield to Lynchburg
Sat 26 June, Lynchburg to Philadelphia
Mon 28 June, Philadelphia to Springfield
I have a bicycle and a couple boxes of books I want to get from Lynchburg to Springfield. Can I get them checked straight through as checked baggage, even though I'll be stopping off in Philadelphia for a few days, if I show all my tickets at Lynchburg when checking them?
All stations handle baggage, but I will be taking completely different trains (Regionals) than my stuff (either 20-49-448 or 20-66-449). It doesn't matter what day my stuff actually arrives in Springfield -- I'll probably drive to Springfield Tuesday or Wednesday to pick it up. I just want to make sure I can get it from Lynchburg to Springfield without having to deal with it in Philadelphia, and ideally get it there as "checked baggage" rather than as "Amtrak Express", even though I've got a layover in my itinerary.
