Series of e-mail alerts received from Altamont Corridor Express:

 

Alameda County Fire Dept., has advised UPRR to stop all train traffic in the area near Altamont and Greenville Rd., just beyond Vasco Station.  Possible delay to ACE Trains.  No other information at this time, will update as soon as more info is available

 

UP has info that we are clear to run trains through affected area at restricted speed.  Waiting for Track Inspector to release trains.  ACE 4 will hold at Pleasanton.

 

ACE 4 is at Livermore Station, currently running approx. 5" behind schedule.  Holding at Livermore until Track Inspector releases track. 

 

UP Track Inspector says will be release track in the next 5 minutes.  All trains will be ok to run at track speed.  Ace 4 departed Vasco, currently running approx. 35minutes behind schedule.
