The anniversary of the funeral train will be marked May 1-3, 2015, in Springfield. The train left Washington, D.C., on April 21, 1865, and stopped in 11 major cities — and many other smaller communities, including Bloomington and Lincoln, before arriving at Third and Jefferson streets in Springfield, site of the current Amtrak depot.
