We are understandably receiving many eager questions. We want to provide solid answers, but unfortunately some information isn't available yet. Our entire Northeast Corridor will remain impacted as we work to restore service after major impacts from severe weather conditions.
Update: Train 83 will incur an additional delay as it is held for repairs made to overhead power lines due to multiple trees down north of NYP. Weather continues to present challenges and we apologize for the additional delays. Crews are working on these issues.
Weather is continuing to present additional issues as severe weather affects the entire Northeast Corridor today, changing our plans for restoration again, and again. Update expected at 4:45PM. Thank you for your patience.
Despite our best effort to restore service between BOS and WAS today, we have determined at this time it is not safe to do so. Hazardous conditions for our customers & crews have led us to cancel all Amtrak service on the Northeast Corridor until tomorrow. We sincerely apologize.
Springfield Shuttle trains are still operating between NHV and SPG. Amtrak service on the Northeast Corridor remains cancelled until at least tomorrow including Keystone Service.
Amtrak service southbound out of WAS is also suspended until at least tomorrow morning due to multiple downed trees blocking the freight line's tracks that we operate on. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience,
Due to the severe weather in the Northeast leading to the cancellation of all Amtrak service in the Northeast Corridor today, phone lines are busy for many customers trying to reach our 800 number, however agents are working hard to take care of many inconvenienced customers.
Update for train 125: We lost overhead power near North Philadelphia due to worsening weather. Customers on 125 are being transferred onto a diesel powered commuter train to get into PHL. We apologize for the added delay and inconvenience.
Due to impacts from severe weather in the Northeast, we will operate a modified schedule in the Northeast region beginning Saturday morning. The following trains are cancelled: 150, 52, 160, 88, 156, 158, 2249, 2290, 153, 65, 660, & 20. (1 of 2)
They probably mean 152, not 52.. the latter is the Auto Train which does not enter the Northeast Corridor.
Additionally, trains 79, 89, 82, & 164 will originate from WAS. Train 143 will originate from NHV; trains 2251 & 147 will originate from NYP. We will update should information change. We appreciate your patience as we work to fully restore service. (2 of 2)
