I do know that Crescent 19/20 tends to have an extra coach on weekends during the summer and when big things are going on in NOLA. It departs NYP on Thursday evening.

How do you get the Crescent to Nashville without going through GA and/or TN?

Somebody would have to figure out a way to pry $$ out of the cold hands of the highway lobby in Georgia. Hasn't happened before - won't happen now.

Sitting in Alexandria right now.

Southern didn't join Amtrak until 1979.

There was also a spur track from the south main that led down to Atlantic Steel, the site of the current Atlantic Station development.

Crescent 19 and 20 will be on random days Atlanta to Birmingham and return.

#20 only lost less than 30 minutes going through the site of the wreck.

Sounds like the are planning on running 19 and 20 all the way through today.

I was on 20 numerous times over the past several years as a Trails and Rails volunteer and breakfast on 20 was never served until about Slidell, sometimes a little later.

Yes, dinner service begins about 5 pm

You can get dinner on #19 into NOL, although it will likely be the Express menu with about half the choices.   #20 does serve breakfast out of NOL, usually beginning around Slidell, about an hour out.
