If you were willing to go to two stations, Louisville, Ky, would be your place. The B&O, PRR, NYC, IC, CIL, L&N, SOU, and C&O all had Louisville as a stop. The B&O, NYC, IC, and C&O all used the central station along the Ohio River, while the rest used the union terminal. You lose the n&w's colorful display of power, but you gain the Illinois Central, and The Chicago Indianapolis and Louisville.
