Now Amtrak will be short of storage facilities if their many operations around CHI were to increase.There's no shortage of car storage or servicing in CHI... Western Avenue (both on the UP and MILW) seems to have availability, and has shore power along with sanitary servicing available. I'm also pretty certain UP would be willing to make a deal on the Canal Street yard (directly south of Union and slightly southwest of Chinatown).
