Passenger Trains > City Of New Orleans route questionDate: 01/02/17 20:40 City Of New Orleans route question Author: Amtrak288 I know someone on this board should know this. What is the name of the route that the CONO uses when riding along Lake Ponchartrain as well as the line the train then takes to make the backup move into the New Orleans station?

Last time I rode 59 it ran straight in. Date: 01/04/17 09:24 Re: City Of New Orleans route question Author: Englewood Amtrak NOUPT for the last few miles of the trip.
