@AmtrakAlerts These cancellations I assume are over and above those for the Midwest trains posted yesterday. Maybe one big list would be easier to navigate.

@kimbikeskc Girl did you get lucky! Beautiful scenery and city up there,I was to Quebec many years ago, and last time to Montreal was 2003, love it but I'm not great at French!

@robr0013 Together 22 years and married 20. Worked the railroad for the first 9 or 10 years of that, and she traveled quite a bit at the time, we always stayed out of that position of being tempted. Look and gawk fine,but don't touch unless u got the hall pass!

[Mike Collins @TrainDS68]

@robr0013 Ouch, careful there! Wait, you got any hair left to stand up like that?

[Mike Collins @TrainDS68]

@robr0013 Definitely Hartman. Ermey was real and kicked ass, did his time on the island and brought it forward into his acting career. Pardon my French Private Pusswad,but I wanna fuck your sister!

[Mike Collins @TrainDS68]

[Mike Collins @TrainDS68]

[Mike Collins @TrainDS68]

@gadiyar_n @AmtrakAlerts That's what happens when you put bad ordered power out for the train!

[Mike Collins @TrainDS68]

@Amtrak @SecretaryPete Amtrak needs to wake up the status feeds for trains, stale since this time yesterday, a total lack of proper data.
