Cindy got me to the Carlinville Amtrak station in time to grab a cup of coffee at McDonald's before hopping on the train. It left Carlinville at almost 8 a.m.
Fortunately, I had my charger, an outlet and my iPad to keep me busy on the ride. At one point, there was a freight train broken down on the track so we had to go in reverse to get to the last switch and move to the other track.
Quite a change of scenery. We arrived at Union Station about a half hour late.
Andy met me at the station and we had lunch before he directed me to the Blue Line so I could come home.
