I also keep a list of current and past timetables at https://juckins.net/amtrak_timetables/archive/home.php When Amtrak gets an updated version I post it there.

ASMAD can tell you... That is a solid connection. Here's a link with the data for past 90 days or so...

That's sad to hear - mom and I met Joe on the westbound Zephyr several summers ago.  He was a wonderfully personable guy and let us tour his office car.  Although not everyone agreed with all of his decisions, he seemed to be respected by many in the company.

With the NB consist originating in ATL, does anyone know if the diner will serve dinner those days? I can probably guess the answer... 

I wish 19 and 20 were like that.  

The 30 minutes early value surprised me, too.  In fact, for the past 60 days it arrived an average of 38 minutes early, and 42 minutes early (median value). I never would have guessed that.

Amtrak has posted the Midwest service 2018 Thanksgiving Holiday timetables - nothing yet for NEC/Keystone or other areas.

Didn't know this was published - thanks for posting it! Maybe Amtrak will eventually realize that open-source data can be a boon to their business.

448 is tracking now - thanks for pointing that out. (I didn't fix it, but a little birdy I know at Amtrak must have.)

Sadly, no...if there is a 'next time' I'll give more notice for those in the local area. Sorry about that.

Glad to hear there is some interest! I can ask about recording, but I know the local group really tries to encourage live participation.

It might not be trivial but I think we can get it working again. Just need some time and maybe a little luck.

My fault for not posting this earlier...but if you are in the DC area and interested in coding and visualizing data about Amtrak, transit or other rail, come to the Transportation Techies Meetup Thursday August 30! It is being held from 6pm to 9pm near Washington Union Station. We'll be...

Is the RPA (and others) adequately calling out this lie? Amtrak spreading these falsehoods is not good, obviously. It's clear they don't want to fight very hard (if at all) to make the current or even an alternate routing work.

It's a positive step, for sure. Guess we'll see what happens in the House and then the final reconciliation.

I didn't look at all of them, but for #98 arriving at NYP Jan 1-July 31 of this year the average AR delay is 1 hour and 13 minutes late, median 42 minutes late. For the same period in 2017 it was 57 minutes and 29 minutes late, respectively. So yeah, it's worse this year.

Here are some charts from ASMAD - arrivals on 91/97 at MIA and 92/98 at NYP. Northbound Meteor (98) seems to have a slight upward trend since the spring.

Hi, the source data stopped working yesterday, and Amtrak's own train tracker is also down. It is something they will have to fix.

I am so saddened to hear this news about Alan. We exchanged several PMs on AU and he was always so helpful and considerate to my questions. I was in NYC a few days ago and as the train left Penn Station I was thinking about all the info Alan shared with me about Amtrak and other NYC trains...

Two years ago we were 6 hours late into LAX. Amtrak put us on the bus to Bakersfield and then a train to Sacramento. It was fine except there is no food besides a vending machine in Bakersfield. The cafe car on the train to Sacramento was good, though.
