Don't know if this has changed, but the last time I did this (NYC sleeper from Chicago, coach to Boston due to a bad ordered BOS sleeper) you may not be able to switch between cars at Albany. The train was split and the BOS section went through the station first, then the NYC section. Our...

Here's a gift link for the Washington Post article that bypasses the paywall. https://wapo.st/42X57ES

As some who has, in my long and varied career, been responsible for cleaning restrooms... Any clean restroom is because it's being aggressively cleaned. Like, once an hour or more for heavy use. It has nothing to do with where it is or who uses it. The only reason high end places have clean...

It looks like last night's #3 was towed back by a BNSF engine to ABQ early in the morning. It went through Gallup about 4am.

Initial reports said it might be a hazardous spill, but later reports say the tankers were carrying corn syrup.

The Chief has a disruption due to a washout in Arizona near the California border (between Kingman and Needles). Last night's trains terminated at Winslow (#3) and Barstow (#4). Today's #3 will terminate in Albuquerque, and become tomorrow's #4. BNSF is expecting to get one track open tomorrow.

No, it's not. Newport to Spokane is abandoned.

There should be zero freights. There was track work going on a few months ago, but I don't know if it's still an issue.

I have seen ICE take people off the Sunset Limited in Del Rio, TX. I have not been personally questioned, though.

Ok, I'm late replying. But it doesn't -- it has to be in an area where a person checks your ID first.

Based on this news report, this is the bridge that burned near La Junta on the SWC's route.

The RoadRunner website indicates no longer do hotel stops other than a few specific resorts.

Really, the only thing that makes sense is that the brakes were stuck on and they couldn't get them to release. Otherwise, they should have been able to tow it to a station.

There was another collision with a garbage truck very close to here back in October.

Even back in the day, you weren't totally unplugged. I remember when you got a morning newspaper in the sleepers.

The wheelchair lift was out at Flagstaff tonight for #3, so it's definitely there and working. It was for a person not in a wheelchair but who couldn't manage the steps.

I was at the station back in November, and there's a wheelchair lift there. I also saw on the camera recently where they used a ramp to have a wheelchair passenger come out for a smoke.

Southwest Chief #3 is cancelled for Saturday 1/15, and #4 for Sunday 1/16.

#3/#4 for today are cancelled.
