We will be riding the northbound Texas Eagle from San Antonio to Austin in the morning hours of Wednesday, July 18th. Note your memories of this short trip here.

Well, it was not as short as expected. We did leave San Antonio on time at 7 AM, but we proceeded a bit slower than maximum speed. San Marcos came a few minutes late. But then we got behind a freight that has to manually flag at grade crossings, and so we alternated between slow and stopped for a while until the freight reached a siding.
Arrival into Austin was 10:21 AM, almost 1 hour late. We detrained in Austin. Many passengers waiting to board. Train was over 1 hour down by the time it continued north.
