I have never been on a 6 hours late #19.  The latest I experienced was about 3 hours.  Thanks for the update.

The diner will serve an "express menu" dinner into NOL regardless of the timekeeping.  It is an abbreviation of the regular menu and the last sitting is at 6PM.  The lounge may stay later than usual, but that would be up to the attendant and the available stock of supplies.

Correct about blocking the main in Atlanta.  There actually was a good station location investigated 5 or so years ago west of the current one in the Atlantic Station area (old steel mill), but the State let it drop and sold the land.  There has been another suggestion north of town near I-285...

Really like the salmon.

Let's try to stay on topic and not hijack the thread. There are already some threads here about SWC.
