    Red Cap cart falls on track and passengers at Union Station in Chicago

    It’s been a long time since I was down there, but I don’t think there is an easy access from the lower level to the station level for any type of machinery.

    Doors didn't open (an Amtrak story...) :)

    It is the train crew responsibility to ensure doors are open at every stop.

    New train (40-41 Floridian) between Miami and Chicago via Washington DC

    None. You can transfer to another Crew Base or acccept a furlough if there are no other OBS positions in that Crew Base you are qualified for or wish to train for.

    The OBS contracts have no provision/protection whatsoever. Amtrak is free to schedule staffing wherever they wish, and the OBS employees have to adapt accordingly.
