Does anyone know why the LSL loses 1-3 hours each night on its westbound journey between SYR and ROC?
Like they did for the empire builder during the North Dakota oil boom?If the delays are then going to be "built-in" due to these changes would it not be advisable then for Amtrak to modify their schedule to reflect the reality of the slow pace? The LSL has not been on time into CHI in quite a while.
It's temporary and roving which would make it hard to pin down. It also depends on the level of traffic which can vary from day to day.If the delays are then going to be "built-in" due to these changes would it not be advisable then for Amtrak to modify their schedule to reflect the reality of the slow pace?

This particular track gang is working Sunday-Wednesday. Additionally, even when they aren't working, sometimes the track isn't available for use in their absence. This can lead to single tracking and the associated congestion delays.Hello All, I am on the LakeShore Limited 48/448 now at Utica and we keep getting delayed. Frustrating as we were a few minutes early into Buffalo, but we are hitting one delay after another. Not sure why we sat here at Utica this long. Thanks for the updates on the track work. Is there normally this much track work on a Sunday? Thank you!
