Date: 03/28/17 13:01 Re: Derailed Lake Shore 49(26) consist Author: ronald321 I wonder how long it took to get all the passengers (197 I think) into the station? 10 hours or something awful like that??

We were all back in the station within a couple of hours. The train departed for a second time sans second sleeper (they found a replacement diner in the yard) about 5 hours late. Excellent work by Amtrak including a voucher for diner in the station before departure.

From another report, the passengers were transferred into the front cars (those that kept contact with the rails) and arrived into CUS about 11:45am.

Amtrak said a first group of passengers got into the station at noon, and the rest -- from the rear of the train -- were in by 1:15 p.m. Date: 03/28/17 18:36 Re: Derailed Lake Shore 49(26) consist Author: NYC4096 Only 197 passengers? Naysayers... I thought nobody rides Amtrak!
