CZ delay both ways

[Peter L. Reid]

Was there a major derailment near Glenwood Springs that delayed the CZ by over 7 hours?

I cannot find any information about it.

Rock slides -- http://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?1,3050513 -- due to rain, slush, and melting snow. For once, no waiting to connect from CZ to CS (#14). I hope there's food for dinner. #50 also getting some rare daylight mileage.

The following day's #5 (dep CHi 4/16) has also encountered a service disruption today (4/17). It reached DEN this morning and then nothing further in the status. Perhaps it has been sent to SLC by the alternate route.

The #6 got to Helper this morning and then nothing more in the status. I don't know what its options are...back up?

Wow, #5 was completely canceled on the 17th. Today it seems to have left Chicago on time.

No information on what happened to #5 and #6 trains that departed their origin stations on the 16th?

trainorders.com has a post that both eastbound and westbound CZs are traveling today on the Wyoming detour, due to many rockslides in Colorado canyons.

And still the snow is falling in the Colorado mountains...
