Detoured between Joliet and 16th St. 
I did not see them but I got a call from someone who did.
Anyone know the reason for the detour?

I don't, but I think that's going to be the future routing, isn't it?

Too hot to travel, but it would have been cool to see a train take the SW quadrant connection to and from the air line.

SERVICE ADVISORY: Lincoln Service Trains 300, 301, 302 & 303 will detour between Joliet (JOL) and Chicago (CHI) missing the Summit (SMT) station on 7/20 & 7/27. This detour is expected to add a delay of about 30 to each train.

Lincoln Service Train 301 is operating about 40min late due to earlier routing delays and track work north of Bloomington-Normal (BNL).

Lincoln Service Train 303 is operating about 55min late due to earlier routing delays and signal issues north of Pontiac (PON).

I just booked a trip for 7/27. I’ve missed this opportunity in the past.
