Passenger Trains > Coast-to-Coast Art Train to Stop in Pittsburgh

Greetings,

Did you know there will be a special Amtrak passenger train in Pittsburgh next Sunday (September 8, 2013)? I was just reading "Wired" magazine and there is a big article on the artist and tour that is going on. The tour kicks off next Friday night in New York City then heads to PGH for a date on Sunday evening, Sept. 8. The tour will feature local bands playing in Penn Station, from what I can tell. If anyone knows more about the schedule, please pass it along. The train should have 9 cars powered by 2 Amtrak units. I would guess it should run sometime on Sat. Something interesting. The way I figure it, it should come west on Sat. and then head out of PGH sometime on Monday. The question is, when are these moves going to take place? To catch a Amtrak passenger train west of Conway in daylight.......priceless!
