Taking train from Midway to Amtrak station; quarantine?
 

I am flying into Midway, then taking the orange line, I believe, to the stop nearest Amtrak station. I will be leaving on Amtrak about 4 hours after getting into the city. The Chicago website says that travelers must quarantine if their final destination is the city of Chicago. Since I am getting on the Amtrak and going to Seattle --essentially "transiting"-- does this mean I would need to quarantine? I appreciate any insight anyone can provide.

No. Your final destination is Seattle, not Chicago. Enjoy your train trip to Seattle.

Thank you for the quick reply. This is good news! I will have my Amtrak ticket on me, obviously. This should keep me in the clear if anyone asks about my final destination and what I'm doing in the city of Chicago.

I don't know if you have researched your way to Union Station. But here is the downtown transit map.

If you get off at Quincy and walk west on Adams, there is an entrance for the train station on your left after you cross the river.
