Keep an eye on the website for changes involving the Palmetto (for the next three weeks or so) and Carolinian (next week.)  I'm seeing numerous cancellations.

Track Work Affects Service for Carolinian and Palmetto Trains

Effective January 15 - March 7, 2019

CSX Transportation will perform track work on the railroad between January 15 and March 7, causing approximately 30-minute delays and schedule changes along the route.


Tuesday - Thursday, January 15 - 17


  • Carolinian Service: Trains 79 and 80 will operate between Raleigh and Charlotte, only. Trains are cancelled between New York and Raleigh, with no alternate transportation provided.
  • Palmetto Service: Trains 89 and 90 will operate normally but will bypass the station of Selma. No alternate transportation will be provided. Passengers may use the Wilson station, approximately 26 miles north of Selma.

Monday - Thursday, January 21 - 24 and February 4 - 7


Palmetto Service: Trains 89 and 90 will operate between New York and Washington, DC, only. Trains are cancelled between Washington, DC and Savannah with no alternate transportation provided.

Monday through Thursday between January 15 and March 7, Trains 52, 52, 89, 90, 97 and 98 can expect approximately 30 minutes of delays between Rocky Mount and Fayetteville.

I suspect the delays between RMT and FAY will exceed 30mins.
