Obama will pick up Vice President elect Joe Biden in Wilmington, Delaware. From there the train will travel through Maryland to Baltimore for a rally that's expected to draw about 100,000 people to the War Memorial Plaza. Then it's on to the nation's capital where the train is scheduled to arrive around 7:00 PM this Saturday.
The Obama's trip is similar to the one taken by Abraham Lincoln in 1861, as the 16th president made his way to his own inauguration.
