Date: 09/24/17 19:30 Re: No. 3 Service Disruption Author: Railbaron Nothing about service disruption now - even shows "on time" out of Raton.
Date: 09/24/17 19:53 Re: No. 3 Service Disruption Author: Railrev But shows 8 hrs late into Las Vegas and later stops.
Date: 09/24/17 19:54 Re: No. 3 Service Disruption Author: ProAmtrak The one for tomorrow? Today's over 8 hours late!
Date: 09/24/17 19:58 Re: No. 3 Service Disruption Author: dan would they need two locos for glorieta wb?
waitng for the BNSF tow truck from trinidad? Or a work train's power. Too bad they arn't testing on Raton today, they could fetch.. it was at 0 mph for awhile, train robbery? it is the wild west, poor hostages at any rate Edited 1 time(s).

Date: 09/24/17 22:54 Re: No. 3 Service Disruption Author: OTG Debris strike. Lead locomotive damaged and set out, BNSF motor sourced to get over the pass. It'll be swapped out for the protect at Albuquerque.
Date: 09/25/17 06:42 Re: No. 3 Service Disruption Author: dan 10.5 hours down now
Date: 09/25/17 07:35 Re: No. 3 Service Disruption Author: PC1974 The mess west of Winslow just added another hour! 11.5 hrs down and increasing...
Date: 09/25/17 08:03 Re: No. 3 Service Disruption Author: dan or the freight unit keeps getting the train a little later?
Date: 09/25/17 09:15 Re: No. 3 Service Disruption Author: camelot7unplugged By east Flagstaff at 8:58 MST ....
Date: 09/25/17 12:32 Re: No. 3 Service Disruption Author: 1976 There was no BNSF engine. Train was already over Raton pass when the incident occurred. Second Amtrak engine added at Albuquerque.

Guess so. Date: 09/25/17 17:02 Re: No. 3 Service Disruption Author: ProAmtrak Thing I don't get is why Amtrak took the protect engine out for a while, it's nice to have that instead of paying BNSF an arm and a leg each time they need a unit from them!

Now with the Chargers now freeing up some units we may see more available power. Andy Date: 09/25/17 21:21 Re: No. 3 Service Disruption Author: ProAmtrak Thanks Andy!
