| The Broadway Limited was the Pennsylvania Railroad's premier named passenger train, operating one train daily in either direction between New York (or Washington, D.C.) and Chicago. The Broadway ran from 1912 (although its train Nos. 28 and 29 operated from 1902 as the Pennsylvania Special) and outlasted the Pennsylvania Railroad, operating under Amtrak until 1995.
Re-live some great moments in history in miniature with Kato’s “Broadway Limited” pulled by the GG1. The “Broadway Limited” offered the finest in luxury travel between New York and Chicago. You had a choice of six types of private rooms ranging from cozy Roomette to luxurious Master Room with a private bath and shower. It also had an Observation-Lounge and Club-Lounge cars with game tables, magazines and refreshment buffets and a Master Dining Car that served food in the traditional “Broadway Limited” manner.
The GG1 pulled this great train fast, smoothly, and quietly between New York and Harrisburg leaving New York in the evening at 6:00 P.M. or arriving in New York at 9:30 A.M. every day.
