Certainly could be, but both 52 and 53 just left a few minutes late, a little after 4 PM, so they are running today. But Transitdocs shows 52 heading Southeast toward Orlando. Detouring?

Detouring? Looks like it's going to use the S-Line (Wildwood, Ocala, Waldo). A video on Facebook showed train running in reverse with one motor, autoracks, passenger cars, and 2 locomotives at the rear.
