Late Train out of Pittsburgh
I will be completing the C&O and the GAP in a few weeks then boarding a train to Chicago. Unfortunately the train doesn't leave until midnight.
I wonder if anyone has any suggestions on where to hang out to be safe, prior to going to the station. From what I can tell the interior of the station isn't too spectacular.
I imagine getting to the station by 10pm would be sufficient to wait around and prepare for loading and boarding. But that leaves several hours between arriving and moving toward the station and there's only so much food and coffee to be had.
I would like to minimize the amount of cycling needed in the dark.
I considered contacting a Warm Showers host but I don't need overnight accommodations - though a shower would be awesome.
