New Amtrak service will connect North Carolina and Chicago
A new Amtrak service will connect North Carolina and Chicago, starting Nov. 10, but it won't be a fast trip. Passengers who board the Floridian at Raleigh's Union Station at 9:08 a.m. will arrive at Union Station in Chicago at 8:45 a.m. the next morning. The train will stop along the way in Richmond, Washington, D.C., Pittsburgh, and Cleveland.
