Passenger Trains > Eastbound Empire Builder (6/23) - over 6 hours lateDate: 06/25/16 10:31 Eastbound Empire Builder (6/23) - over 6 hours late Author: jp1822 The eastbound Empire Builder that left Seattle/Portland on 6/23 is now running over six hours late as of 1 pm EST. It seems that time was lost after leaving Havre. Heat restrictions? Did they have to put a freight unit on?
I see that #4, the Soithwest Chief is also running late I to Chicafo today (6/25). Date: 06/25/16 11:23 Re: Eastbound Empire Builder (6/23) - over 6 hours late Author: daniel3197 Amtrak train 7 of 24th shows Service Disruption on the excellent transitdocs live map at WIlliston ND.
