#1/#421 Arrived Late into LAX (but to the Benefit of the Pax/No 4:30AN Arrival!)but made its Connection with #14 so I would suspect that a late Arriving #11 caused a Delay in #2 Departing LAX! There is ls also a possibility that the recent spate of Engine problems resulted in juggling of Engines by the Operating Crews since Protect Engines are currently Few and Far between!So I take it the #21 shenanigans are what killed #2 today?
It was fairly on time eastbound through DRT, then mysteriously got slammed between DRT & SAS.#1/#421 Arrived Late into LAX (but to the Benefit of the Pax/No 4:30AN Arrival!)but made its Connection with #14 so I would suspect that a late Arriving #11 caused a Delay in #2 Departing LAX!

Had Lisa on the 421 last December, she indeed stayed on top of things and was a very good attendant. Hoping we encounter her again on one, or both legs of our TE trip in the near future. Listened to #1 on the scanner this AM, from my office, arriving on track 13.We made it into LAX right at 8AM, was a perfect arrival time. Everyone had time to get ready for the day and have some coffee before arrival.
Walked over to Phillipe's for the first time to have breakfast, what a neat place. Going to have to try a sandwich on the way back in a couple weeks.
The whole rest of the trip everyone in our car was complaining to Lisa about how bad Ernesto was. Lisa said she had been with Amtrak 26 years and claimed the SCA job isn't that hard if you just stay on top of things. I have never seen someone clean the bathrooms so frequently. I imagine Amtrak is going to get a lot of phone calls and letters about this trip.
