Big derailment east of Elkhart. Rumor is Capital Limited and Lake Shore are going to run through Michigan.
The dispatcher is cool.

NPCU leader on Amtrak
Word has it they're adding NPCU 90222 at West Detroit Jct. to lead the train west on the Michigan Line (must have an ITCS equipped leader)....this will probably be the first time an NPCU will lead a long distance train over the road..... GO SEE IT!

Re: Heads up Michigands (NS Michigan Line)
I have been told by someone who spoke with Amtrak, that the train is still scheduled to stop in Elkhart. I'm wondering now if they are re-routing via the Grand Elk to Elkhart?
