Many thanks to jimdex! Your reply was extremely helpful!
You do have the Piedmonts too, no?Well living in CLT, pretty much relegates me to the Crescent and Carolinian.
Yes, but I was referencing LD rides.You do have the Piedmonts too, no?
In the past, their estimate has been pretty accurate. Remember, it affects freight traffic also, so they want to get it done.What is the likelihood that the trackwork actually ends by the 16th?
They seem to even be open on the 16th.Reservations are open on the 20th .
Maybe. Can't think of any reason to send a Viewliner diner south/west to NOL except to position it for service on the Crescent. It's the only single level train out of NOL.Todays 19 passing through ATL has a dead head Diner on the rear of the train.
Perhaps a positive sign of things to come?
jis: I think you used admirable restraint in your response. I know the connections in SAS to and from the Sunset Ltd. and Texas Eagle are a bit confusing in any direction because of the Sunset tri-weekly days of operation, but really??? My travels are always DAL-SAS-NOL-ATN which requires getting off 21 then getting on 2. I am still here to tell about it and have NOT missed a connection once.
More likely for staff training in NOL at present. It is unlikely that Crescent will get a Diner this year. But ya never knowMaybe. Can't think of any reason to send a Viewliner diner south/west to NOL except to position it for service on the Crescent. It's the only single level train out of NOL.
Even if they only do flex in it, it would still be an improvement over doing everything out of the cafe.
But Amtrak moves in mysterious ways, so who knows?
