#449: Problems today ?
Author: mp16

Amtrak train status indicates it left South Station on time.  But "status unavailable" is indicated for Back Bay, Framingham, and Worcester
Estimated departure is OT for Springfield

Track A Train Map has the words about "no active train in your search"
Is it stuck somhere in Boston on actually enroute to Springfield but  not on Amtrak's computer ?

Seems to be a problem on "Track a train". Trains 42 and 43 haven't shown up on it at all and status was shown at some stations but not others. Other trains don't show up either.

Track-A-Train relies on GPS tracking data from the trains, a part of the onboard telemetry system that
relays operational statistics in Amtrak locomotives to CNOC in Delaware.  Portions of that system
went bad order on Sunday, Jan. 15, rendering the data unavailable.
