Hmm, now it is getting interesting with regards to the Capitol Limited delays. I'm starting a new thread on this because Amtrak filing a complaint with the STB against NS and CSX has ramifications and aspects that go beyond the Summer and early Fall of bad delays for the CL and LSL.

Railway Age: Amtrak files complaint with STB over Capitol Limited performance
Excerpt:
Amtrak has filed a complaint with the U.S. Surface Transportation Board against Norfolk Southern and CSX over substandard on-time performance of the Washington D.C.-Chicago Capitol Limited, which operates over right-of-way owned by NS and CSX. Including an earlier complaint filed against CN, this is Amtraks second such action regarding substandard on-time performance of its long-distance trains.
Attorneys Linda J. Morgan, Kevin M. Sheys, and Katherine C. Bourdon of Nossaman, LLP, and Amtrak Managing Deputy General Counsel William H. Herrmann filed the complaint on Nov. 17, 2014, pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 24308(f), to initiate an investigation by the STB.
