As of November 2004, this train seems to have been discontinued. (Ian R, 30/11/04)
As of July, 2005, the Pennsylvanian is definitely running.
In the Amtrak National Timetable of May 16, 1999 the Pennsylvanian was listed as train numbers 44 (eastbound) and 43 (westbound) not 42 and 43 as stated in this page.

As of November 2019, the Sample Consist section of the Pennsylvanian page is out of date. Please update when possible. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 153.104.168.5 ( talk) 15:16, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
Does this line have anything to do with the former Pennsylvania Railroad Pennsylvanian that used to stop at Chicago Union Station? ---- DanTD ( talk) 16:35, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
The photos show diesel locomotives under wires; does Amtrak change to electric locomotives on the electrified section of this train? -- 84.119.44.177 ( talk) 18:28, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Please fix the above points, so that the article is GA compliant. Thank you. ★★ KING RETROLORD★★ 08:44, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Retrolord has been indefinitely blocked, but I can finish this one up. I should have my comments posted in the next 3-7 days; sorry for the delay in your review. -- Khazar2 ( talk) 16:01, 28 July 2013 (UTC)
Okay, I've read this through and made a few minor tweaks; feel free to revert any you disagree with. This is a solid, well-written article that's clearly ripe for promotion. I also made the slightly larger change of removing the "Finances" header to make this material a part of "history". It's not out of place there, and avoids the sort of very short subsection discouraged by WP:LAYOUT. Again, feel free to revert and we can discuss.
All else looks good so far. Now I'll go over the checklist and do a few spotchecks, but I suspect this is ready to promote. -- Khazar2 ( talk) 17:27, 28 July 2013 (UTC)

Train 44 was (to the best of my knowledge) nothing more than a Sunday-only schedule variation. It's been gone for years. I don't see much purpose in listing it in the infobox. If we had a source discussing why the Pennsylvanian had a different eastbound schedule on Sundays then that would be worth discussing in the article. Mackensen (talk) 02:59, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
Hello! I just noticed there is no information since 2011, and there definitely should be, as this is a good article. I don't know much about the route, as I have only taken it a few times, but I was hoping someone else with more knowledge could chime in. Thanks! – Daybeers ( talk) 23:49, 21 February 2018 (UTC)
The Pennsylvanian is recongnized as the successor to the Three Rivers, which ceased service in 2005. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.5.122.1 ( talk) 20:37, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
