All Aboard the Memphis to Chicago Express!
So, you wanna know what time the train leaves Memphis for Chicago? Well, buckle up, buttercup, because we're about to embark on a thrilling journey through the world of train schedules.
One Train to Rule Them All
Let's get this straight: there's basically one train a day that makes the grand Memphis to Chicago trek. So, unless you're planning a midnight rendezvous with the conductor, you're probably looking at a departure time around 10:40 PM. Yes, that’s right. It's a night owl's dream come true (or nightmare, depending on your love for early mornings).
Why So Late?
You might be wondering, “Why in the world would they schedule a train to leave so late?” Well, dear reader, I can’t say for sure. Maybe they’re trying to give everyone a chance to finish dinner and argue with their family before boarding. Or perhaps they’re just trying to be dramatic. Who knows? But hey, at least you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy a pre-train cocktail (or three).
Tips for Your Train Adventure
- Dress comfortably: You're going to be on a train for about 10 hours. PJs are acceptable, but maybe skip the ones with the questionable stains.
- Bring snacks: Train food can be... questionable. Pack your favorite munchies to avoid carb-loading on overpriced pretzels.
- Download entertainment: Books, movies, podcasts – whatever floats your boat. You’ll have plenty of time to consume content.
