Amtrak announced a new intercity rail line connecting Chicago, Illinois, and Madison, Wisconsin. The route will run twice daily, stopping in Milwaukee, Pewaukee, and Watertown, and is slated for launch in the early 2030s.

Funding approval remains the key obstacle, but the service aligns with Amtrak’s broader fleet modernization efforts.
