I can't speak to other locations, just ours.

http://www.thosetrainpeople.com/ Lincoln Funeral Train UPDATE: The Lincoln Funeral Train will not travel from Washington, DC to Springfield, Illinois this month. However, the Lincoln Funeral Car WILL be in Springfield. The train's first full appearance (locomotive and funeral car) will be Wellington, Ohio over Memorial Day weekend (May 23-25). Please stay tuned for other dates and locations. |
