125 is getting it hard before it even leaves the NEC. So far it is scheduled to arrive 75 minutes late and leave roughly 35 minutes late.
Edit: departed WAS 70 minutes late, got to see the Silver Star with a MARC engine attatched

There have been some serious catenary problems due to heat on the NEC this afternoon.
