Why's Amtrak #3 Southwest Chief Running Late Today?
Author: rrman6

Noticed the Southwest Chief #3 was running approximately an hour late this morning in Western Kansas.  Anyone know why?  Accident east of here or just normal winter delay?

Delay due to freight setting out bad order car.

An hour, you're concerned by an hour late train?

        For most of Amtrak, an hour late qualifies for 'on time'.

I don't get concerned with Amtrak delays until they exceed 10% of the running time.

I wasn't anticipating a ride on #3.  Just missed my +/-4:30AM "AMTK train horn" since I was still awake following an early morning peestop!

Those kind of standards are why our rail system sucks.

I agree with your sentiments.  I guess we both know there are people here who really do want to know why a train is an hour late.

An hour?, try 10 minutes.
