I was once on an overnight train from Pittsburgh to northeast Indiana. A few dozen teens boarded in Cleveland at around 2 AM. They didn't shut up for the entire ride. Just as we crossed into Indiana, a group of them went downstairs to the bathrooms and changed into formal dress. 1/

I overheard that they believed that they would be arriving in Chicago momentarily. They were quite excited about that. I left the train in Waterloo, Indiana, which is 3-4 hours from Chicago on a good day. If they hadn't kept me awake for most of the night, I might have made them aware of that. 2/2
