LD train departures from Chicago today (1/21)
Author: Winnemucca

Long distance Amtrak trains left Chicago Union Station today as indicated:

#3 - OT
#5 - OT
#7 - OT
#21 - OT
#30 - 48 mins late. Second day in a row this train has left late.
#48 - 26 mins late
#850 - OT
#59 - 1 hr, 18 mins late

3 late train departures. Not a good day. Anyone know what might be causing this? Informed answers only. No rants please.

I would bet the cold weather is causing all kinds of havoc with Amtrak's fleet.

Has anyone seen how the 300-series trains performed yesterday, today?

354 departed chicago 1 hour 45 minutes late due to frozen switches and a frozen train(no heat water or toilets) and took awhile to thaw out the train. the lake shore limited arrived 3 and half hours late due to bad weather and a cracked rail(we had to go no faster then 3MPH over the cracked area).
