I recall being at the Kalamazoo depot one night back in the early 1960s. The westbound NYC Twilight Limited had 16 passenger cars! When I asked why it was so long I was told that the Bears had played the Lions that day and the train was full of fans returning to Chicago. I wonder if any fans today would have preferred a train instead of the icy highways?
