Passenger Trains > Amtrak no. 43 had two engines today

As no. 43 was leaving Harrisburg the engineer informed the conductor that engine 105 had traction motor issues so they added the Harrisburg protection engine no.118 ahead. However the 118 has cab signal issues so they will have to switch the engines around at Pittsburgh for tomorrow's train. They were able to proceed to Pittsburgh on rule 362 on the NS as apparently it's considered a cab signal failure enroute but will need operating cab signals tomorrow.

State of good repair. But at least they were able to work around it!

In spite of all that, they were only 7 minutes late into Pittsburgh.
