Today's trains through Fargo made it.
Train 7/27 27(Mar) departed Fargo 47m late.
Train 8/28 26(Mar) departed at 441am, 2hr 28m late. Arrived into MSP at 930am, 2hr 24m late.
As of right now, even though the news has got worse, Train 7/27 is expected to depart on-time.
Someone asked what does "dogcatch" mean, it's when the train crew's FRA allowable work time has expired, it's 12 hours maximum, and a new crew it sent out to meet the train, intending to dogcatch the train before the crew dies. Usually, the dogcatch crew is the next crew that would be taking over at a crew change point. Sometimes an extra board conductor and engineer will be called or sometimes even they may be called to work OT on a day off.
