The Cardinal was 4 hrs 23min late at Alderson, WV and is now 7hrs 4 min late at South Portsmouth, KY. Does anyone know the cause?

It is expected into Chicago nearly six hours late. Actually it will probably be more as it is dragged along by a CSX unit at reduced speed.
I saw this when I was randomly checking the on time status for this train, and wondered what was going on with yesterday and today's Cardinal train!
 
The Cardinal arrived Chicago 5hr 59 minutes late. Bad, but yesterday's winner was the Capitol Limited - 8hr 57min late (bad-ordered cars at WAS, then just got later and later). That makes the Lake Shore's 1hr 3min late arrival seem like on-time.
