At this time (morning of 7/23), points should have shown up for the group trips on #49 NYP-CHI and #3 CHI-ABQ. Of course mine are big goose eggs because the trips were on points redemption, but it proves the tickets were processed. It's too soon for #4, but it should be very soon if those tickets get processed just as quickly.

As some know as discussed during the Chat, apparently the combination of splitting a trip (in this case CHI-MKA and MKA-MKE on different trains and days for the cost of a CHI-MKE trip) and the Hiawatha Corridor being unreserved, one segment appears to be missing from my totals so far. The conductor showed me that his attempts to scan the ticket yielded a "Ticket already lifted" message. Of course it was obvious he had just collected my ticket, so it was let go. But I predicted right then and there that I would not receive the points, and that is the only segment of the journey that has not yet been acknowledged on my account. I don't know if this will happen along the NEC (now that tickets are being scanned on board) when I do the same thing, but the difference is the NEC is all reserved. Won't find out in the near future, since I'm on the cusp of achieving Select Plus and thus the split trips won't be necessary until I need more qualifying segments next year.

Just to confirm - all of my stuff except MKA-MKE posted... Still, if I have to, I can make a Paoli run or something when I have a few hours on my next trip east.

Technicalities suck and legal name changes are a mess after it happens.

I see that I have 2 segments missing. Besides the little MKA-MKE trip, I also didn't get the zero points for TOL-WAS on #30, probably because I also had a paid segment CHI-TOL on the same train (which I did get credit for). Since I don't earn any points on a redemption, I won't raise a stink over that one.
