The GLX Medford Branch got hit with a staggering amount of 3mph speed restrictions over the past week. What is happening???

The CSX heritage units are being done at the wrong shop. The work of Waycross versus the work of Huntington. No comparison.

I love dropping into the replies to Amtrak Alerts and just blowing non-railfans’ minds by knowing exactly what’s going on and backing it up with ATCS screenshots. They act like it’s black magic, it’s just called being obsessive about something completely random lmao

Some very cool train news this week: Brightline received final environmental approval to build high speed rail through the Cajon Pass in California! This sets the stage for their ambitious plans to start construction this year and open HSR in time for the 2028 LA Olympics!

(what I believe) is the first revenue run of an ALC-42 leading on an eastern Amtrak train! Amtrak 30 this afternoon in Point of Rocks, MD, with engineer Ryan Riddell doing the honors.
