South Bend (Amtrak Station)
South Bend is a train station in South Bend, Indiana. It is served by Amtrak Lake Shore Limited service to and from Chicago, Boston and New York, and Capitol Limited service to and from Chicago and Washington D.C..
The station was built in 1970 when the original Union Station in South Bend was abandoned and served as the terminus of the South Shore Line until November 1992, when a new terminal was built at South Bend Regional Airport. Railroads such as the New York Central Railroad and the Grand Trunk Western Railroad used South Bend Union Station, but Amtrak and the City of South Bend vouched for the use of the current station.

Famous quotes containing the words south and/or bend:
“The South Wind is a baker.”
—Vachel Lindsay (1879–1931)
“He bends to the order of the seasons, the weather, the soils and crops, as the sails of a ship bend to the wind. He represents continuous hard labor, year in, year out, and small gains. He is a slow person, timed to Nature, and not to city watches. He takes the pace of seasons, plants and chemistry. Nature never hurries: atom by atom, little by little, she achieves her work.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
