CHICAGO — Extreme weather conditions and an abundance of caution have led Amtrak to cancel all train originations to and from Chicago for Wednesday, Jan. 30, including short-distance corridor trains and long-distance overnight trains.
According to a news release from Amtrak officials late Tuesday, short-distance services would also be canceled on Thursday, Jan. 31, and most long-distance services to or from Chicago were not expected to originate on Jan. 31.
The release said Amtrak typically operates 55 trains daily to and from the Chicago hub. Those trains that originated on Tuesday, Jan. 29, or previously will complete their trips to or from Chicago.
The only Amtrak Midwest services scheduled to originate Wednesday and Thursday are the two Missouri River Runner round-trips between Kansas City and St. Louis.

Customers with reservations on trains that are being modified will typically be accommodated on trains with similar departure times or another day. Amtrak will gladly waive additional charges for customers looking to change their reservation during the modified schedule by calling our reservation center at 800-USA-RAIL.
Anyone can subscribe to automated email or text message notifications if Amtrak trains are behind schedule at specific stations.
