Join us for our keynote presentation in the 175 Series as documentary filmmaker, Rich Luckin, takes you onboard one of America’s most luxurious passenger trains, the New York Central’s 20th Century Limited. With red carpet service and champagne, this train was the way for celebrities and business tycoons to travel between New York and Chicago, 1902-1967. We welcome you to join us as we explore the train known as “Tiffany’s on rails.”
