Paoli, 1975- the Broadway Limited eases to a stop on its way from Chicago to New York. Note the two sleepers behind the baggage car. If you want to make the trip today, you hop off the Capitol Limited in Pittsburgh at 5:05 a.m. and catch the all-coach Pennsylvanian to New York, departing at 7:30 a.m. Westbound, you arrive in Pittsburgh at 8:00 p.m. and have nearly a 4-hour wait for the westbound "Capitol." The 1953-built Paoli Station is slated for some improvements. From the Amtrak/PennDOT web page: "The project will include a new center high-level platform, elevators, ramps, a pedestrian overpass, parking lot improvements, ADA improvements to the existing station building, and changes to infrastructure that allow for construction of the center high-level platform. Once complete, this work will bring the Paoli Station into compliance making it accessible for all users."
