Cleveland Lakefront Station is an Amtrak train station at North Coast Harbor in Cleveland, Ohio. The station was built in 1977 to provide service to the ''Lake Shore Limited'' route, which was reinstated by Amtrak via Cleveland and Toledo in 1975.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Amtrak Lake Shore Limited Train Route Guide )〕 It replaced service to Cleveland Union Terminal (now Tower City Center). Lakefront Station is a modern station located just north of downtown Cleveland on the Lake Erie waterfront, near the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Great Lakes Science Center, the Steamship William G. Mather Museum, and FirstEnergy Stadium. The station has had little to no renovation since its opening. , the only trains that stop at Lakefront Station are Amtrak's ''Lake Shore Limited'' and ''Capitol Limited'' trains, both of which arrive/depart between 1:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. The RTA Waterfront Line will stop at Lakefront Station, but only upon request. The ''Pennsylvanian'' served Cleveland from 1998 to 2003, when it reverted to its original Pittsburgh–New York route. ==Services== Cleveland has four daily trains: the ''Capitol Limited'' (trains 29 and 30) between Washington, D.C. and Chicago, and the ''Lake Shore Limited'' (trains 48/448 and 49/449) between Chicago and New York City/Boston.〔 , these trains were scheduled to arrive/depart from Cleveland at various times between 1:00 a.m. and 5:50 a.m. The timing of the departures and arrivals has drawn criticism, with Amtrak also trying to tinker with train schedules through suggestions, reminding people that the schedules are not set in stone. The Cleveland RTA Rapid Waterfront Line tracks separate the station building and Amtrak platform.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Waterfront Line )〕 There is no platform for the Waterfront Line trains, but they will stop at the station upon request, with passengers discharging at the at-grade pedestrian connection to the building.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Amtrak (by request only) Rapid Station )〕 As such, the stop is not wheelchair accessible. Disabled passengers must instead board or disembark at the North Coast station, which is within walking distance to the Amtrak station.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=E 9th/North Coast Rapid Station )〕 However, the Waterfront Line currently does not run during most of the time of day that includes Amtrak arrivals or departures.〔 The ''Lake Shore Limited'' has served Lakefront Station from its opening in 1977. The ''Capitol Limited'' began stopping at Lakefront on November 12, 1990, after Conrail's abandonment of portions of the ex-Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railway in northwestern Indiana forced the re-routing of that train along with the ''Broadway Limited''. Previously it had passed to the south, serving Canton. Between 1998 and 2003, the ''Pennsylvanian'' served Cleveland, providing daylight service to Chicago and Philadelphia. Weak ridership prompted Amtrak to return the train to a Pittsburgh–New York schedule. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cleveland Lakefront Station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
