July 15-16 Lake Shore Ltd Chicago to New York

The Lake Shore Ltd train takes you 1000km from Chicago to New York City and all point in between in just under 24 hours. Not the most comfortable of nights as we had a small compartment and the train ride was very rough and bumpy (the next day vertigo made an unwelcome appearance ..... ). We travelled past cities with names straight out of TV  and movies - Toledo, Cleveland, Albany and Rochester plus plus. Travelling with many Amish families obviously from different regions - at least according to their various attire. It is quite riveting, like stepping back 100s of years.










George Washington Bridge

From Albany the train hugged the Hudson River passed West Point and all the way into Manhattan.
