Joe Biden Presidential Campaign Train Tour

This Wed but no details on times. Stops in Latrobe and Greensburg and Johnstown. Wonder how to find out when. I live 100 miles north of Pgh. Would love to show up at one of these.

“Stops in Pittsburgh, Latrobe, Greensburg and Johnstown will highlight Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s tour — by train — of Western Pennsylvania on Wednesday.

Mr. Biden, traveling to meet with voters and workers the day after he debates President Donald Trump on national television, will “talk about what he will do as president to create jobs, support working families and build our economy back better,” according to his campaign — which, as of Tuesday morning, hadn’t publicly released stop-by-stop details about the tour.”

I would be nice if they would do that. Many of our friends are interested in seeing them. We got to see President Obama twice here. What a thrill that was!
Thank you for offering an update. We will keep looking, too.

candidate. I’ll definitely let you know when I see an update. Due to COVID, maybe it’s by invitation only. Although that point isn’t mentioned in this article.

My oldest son traveled across the country to Jackson Hole Wyoming with some friends while they were in college. They were stopped on the street by the Secret Service and were asked if they wanted to meet President Clinton. He shook all of their hands....of course this was before they had cell phones so no pictures.
My other son was working in NYC doing scouting and locations for movies and TV and he got to meet Al Gore. Pretty cool for the boys.
