Re: CSX Train Location Updates - December 2023
Amtrak 48 was running just under 40 minutes late past Porter, they had added an extra P42 to the train in Chicago as a rescue engine for P370. I guess it was decided that it was not needed, they did not stop to drop it off. As of 00:30 ET, P370 is still stopped in Porter. Throughout the system currently, 8 of the 64 active trains are in service disruption!
01:40 ET Edit - P370 is lined and has the signal onto the CSX from NS Porter Siding. They have had the signal since around 01:15, but they have yet to knock it down.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - December 2023
It will be interesting to see if it has passengers aboard. It’s not showing on the status map, and the Amtrak website shows it in Service Disruption.

Re: CSX Train Location Updates - December 2023
Not 121, they are on the dock track. More likely track equipment.
