It's another snapshot as to just how many people want to see this month's solar eclipse. Amtrak officials yesterday said their eclipse train from Chicago to Carbondale on August 21st sold out in just 22 hours. The train leaves Chicago at 3 a.m. and arrives in Carbondale at 8:30 a.m., it then heads back north at 5:30 p.m. Carbondale tourism officials say the train allows people to come to town and experience the eclipse without having to worry about finding a hotel.
