Broadway Limited - Station Stops

Station Stops

  • New York Penn Station
  • Newark Penn Station
  • North Philadelphia (note that the train did not stop in central Philadelphia, instead bypassing it via Zoo Junction)
  • Paoli
  • Harrisburg (engine change from GG1 to diesel-electric units)
  • Baker Street Station (Fort Wayne)
  • Englewood Union Station
  • Chicago Union Station

Until 1933 the train stopped to change engines at Manhattan Transfer, nine miles west of New York Penn Station; passengers from downtown Manhattan could ride the H&M train to Manhattan Transfer and board the Broadway there. After electrification eliminated the engine change the train continued to stop there for downtown passengers until 1937, when the transfer was moved to Newark itself.

Famous quotes containing the words station and/or stops:

    With boys you always know where you stand. Right in the path of a hurricane. It’s all there. The fruit flies hovering over their waste can, the hamster trying to escape to cleaner air, the bedrooms decorated in Early Bus Station Restroom.
    Erma Bombeck (20th century)

    There’s a quality of legend about freaks. Like a person in a fairy tale who stops you and demands that you answer a riddle. Most people go through life dreading they’ll have a traumatic experience. Freaks were born with their trauma. They’ve already passed their test in life. They’re aristocrats.
    Diane Arbus (1923–1971)
