Do a round trip to Helper if you are crazy. Havn't checked on tommorrows 6. Look like 5 and 6 which are both now due at 8pm at DUT plus the ski train. Date: 12/18/03 18:07 Amtrak #6 Finally into Lincoln, NE 7:30PM Author: rockislandbob #6 finally into Lincoln, NE at 7:30PM. I was on my way downtown when the crossing gate came down & #6 shot by me. Passengers sitting in coach looked pretty weary. Long ways for them yet to Chicago. rockislandbob
