Amtrak 365 hit a vehicle this morning, driver escaped injury. I went searching for a story after seeing their status was service disruption.
Lots of debris.

LOTS of debris widely scattered. How fast is the train usually going on this stretch of track?

I think the upgrades in that area have been completed...it's possible they were decelerating from 110, but I'm not 100% sure.adams_aj wrote:LOTS of debris widely scattered. How fast is the train usually going on this stretch of track?

Still 79 MPH east of Kalamazoo. 365 being west bound might have still been roiling at a good clip if they were staying on track 2. Amtrak seems to be favoring track 2.
