Major heads up. Amtrak ballast train currently sitting at willow run facing east with two dash 8s.

That is where it has been for over a week. Won't be doing anything on a Sunday. They have been running work trains during the week for the last few weeks on and off.

Per AmtrakAlerts on Twitter, both 364 and 354 are late due to "Mechanical Issues"

A Challenger??? When did we get those??....or is that the new nickname for the Charger, 'cause it's a challenge to keep them running??;-)

Re: Amtrak Train Locations/Heads Up - 2022
I don't believe they would have been dropping ballast at 5pm considering they were by CP28 in Ypsilanti at 5:24pm. At the speed they run this thing, 20 mins is about what it would take to go dexter to Ypsi without stopping.LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Thu May 19, 2022 4:59 pmEB thru Dexter now, dropping ballast.LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Thu May 19, 2022 4:27 pm518/519 EB thru Chelsea at 15:55 w ballast train and that NS 4291 on the tail end.

Re: Amtrak Train Locations/Heads Up - 2022
Amtrak 354 arrived at Pontiac around 5 am this morning, four hours late.
Amtrak 351 hasn't left Pontiac yet, I presume because of 354's late arrival? It is an hour an a half late leaving and counting.
