Amtrak 351 was 20 minutes late leaving Pontiac this morning for some reason. 354 arrived on time last night so that wasn't the problem.

Amtrak 350 is powered by a P42 this morning.

Just to clarify, you mean 350, not 351.
Right?

Yes. I meant to correct earlier that but forgot to. Sorry. 350 had a Charger leading this afternoon.

Phase VII paint coming soon to more legacy Amtrak equipment near you!GP30M4216 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2024 8:05 pmYesterday, January 29, P42 174 was released from Beech Grove leading train 51 the Cardinal from Chicago, then was assigned to lead train 30 to DC. This is the first Genesis painted in the Phase VII red blue and deep blue scheme debuted on the ALC-42s. The red and dark blue nose with the white stripe sure stands out on the front of the train!

350, out of Pontiac on time again this morning, had a P42 again, the third day in a row by my count.

Battle Wagon (P42) leader tonight on 352. Those things will never get old for me.

Amtrak 351 had a P42 again this morning. It had a squeaky and weak horn.

Amtrak 350 was 2 hours and 22 minutes late arriving in Pontiac this afternoon. It looks like it left Chicago two hours late and may have had a another delay in the way as the tracker said "it is back on the move" as of 2:22 pm where it would have been between Jackson and Ann Arbor.

Amtrak 350 was about an hour and a half late departing Pontiac this morning for some reason. It had the usual (lately) P42 as power.

supposedly it had PTC issues ----and not ITCS for a change
even more surprising was that the AML train director let the on-time 365 run in front of the late 351 outta 'da crick this morning.....I'm shocked I tell ya....

59mph the entire way!Buster Manning wrote: ↑Sun Feb 18, 2024 11:29 amsupposedly it had PTC issues ----and not ITCS for a change
However that wouldn’t work because nothing is allowed to depart an originating point without working PTC (unless said line is PTC exempt of course).

then why did I see it running 109 mph west of Kazoo, and along with a check of it's run times out of PNT, it didn't lose time account of no ITCS
I stand by what I said

Habit forming: 351 had a P42 again this morning. And it left Pontiac on time today.
