MADISON, Wis. — Later this month, High Iron Travel will host three dining excursions, called “Dining with Pullman” from Chicago Union Station on Feb. 17-19. The five-car train will make two dinner and one brunch trip between Chicago and Sturtevant, Wis., on Canadian Pacific’s Chicago-Milwaukee main line.
The power is expected to be E8 No. 6070 in a Southern Pacific “Black Widow” inspired scheme. The locomotive powered a Chicago to Indianapolis special last month for the Railroad Passenger Car Alliance’s annual conference while the five passenger cars from the same excursion will also be used.
Departures on both Friday and Saturday night are scheduled for 6:30 p.m. from Chicago for the one hour trip to Sturtevant. The train will depart Sturtevant each evening at 8:30 p.m. for Chicago. The Sunday brunch train will depart at 11 a.m., arriving Sturtevant at noon. Departure from Sturtevant will be 1 p.m. for Chicago.
Tickets for any of the three departures at $120 and can be purchased online.
