Amtrak train adds stop in Bill Clinton’s hometown
Amtrak’s Texas Eagle has added a stop in Hope, Ark., birthplace of former President Bill Clinton.

Hope, Ark., is now a National Park Service historic site with ranger-guided tours of the former president’s first home. The southwestern Arkansas community has a population of about 10,000.
The westbound Texas Eagle departs Chicago at 1:45 p.m., arriving in Hope just after 5 a.m. the next morning. The eastbound train leaves Hope at 9:18 p.m. with arrival in Chicago the following afternoon.
