I read an interesting story over the weekend regarding the amount of money the City of Chicago spent as a result of the Chicago Cubs winning the World Series.
Amtrak travelers between Chicago and Quincy will now be allowed to take small cats and dogs with them for $25 in the first test in the nation of what could become a system wide pets-on-board Amtrak policy. The Illinois Zephyr and Carl Sandburg trains will be the first Amtrak testing grounds for the service.
