[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's Amtrak. They are not known for timeliness or customer service. They know they can get away with it. What are you going to do, never ever take a train again? Stowaway on freight trains? Walk? [/quote] If you read the later post it sounds like a freight train broke down on the line. Amtrak has no control over the freight trains (indeed the freight companies screw Amtrak all the time) so what do you expect Amtrak to do?[/quote] Amtrak owns the rails from DC to NYC, but almost all the rest is owned by freight companies so Amtrak doesnt' get priority.[/quote] Well, if OP was stranded outside Richmond, yeah, that's entirely all freight tracks down there. Though this sounds less like a freight line screwing over Amtrak and more like they literally had to clean up a derailed freight car/fix the tracks before OP's passenger train could go.[/quote]
