I know there is another thread related to this but it was apparently moved out of the Amtrak forum.
I am on the westbound Empire Builder that left Chicago today 7(7). Yesterday's train 7(6) has been severely delayed due to that derailment of an oil train in North Dakota.
My SCA said that 7(6) will be turned at Spokane and Seattle and Portland passengers will be bustituted. As of now we are almost on time and the SCA said it is too early to tell if the same thing will happen to us.
Not looking forward to that. Plus I would probably miss my connection to the Coast Starlight and subsequently miss my LAX connection to the Sunset Limited.
