Rerouted Amtrak 3 & 4 in Los Angeles area
Author: DNRY122

Did anyonw get photos of thw SW Chief running on the Metrolink San Bernardino Line after the tracks south of Union Station were disrupted by fallen LADWP lines?   Extra points for shots on its former native habitat between San Berdoo and Claremont.

What's an "LADWP" line?  Can I assume this problem is related to the wildfires?

Thanks.  But was that a wildfire problem or something else?

LADWP is the municipal utility that provides much (most?) of the electricity to the city of Los Angeles.
Not to be confused with SCE (Southern California Edision), the investor-owned utility that provides electricity to much of the remainder of southern California.
