Wilson is north of Selma (where the SS rejoins the A Line), so it is on the route of the SS as well as the SM, Palmetto, Carolinian, and Auto Train.
There was an update as of 9pm tonight 9/6/19. I find it interesting that there is no mention of resuming service on 92, 98 and the Auto Train. I did not check the Auto Train, but Amtrak is selling tickets on its website for both 92 and 98, even though, at this time, they both are almost sold out. I am making the assumption that Amtrak will not cancel 98 at the last minute and I will be able to travel.
