@murjax Indeed it was, the snow in Virginia really hit the railroad hard. I caught P097 at Charleston at about 10:30, 5 hours late. This came by while I was waiting on the platform.
@murjax Yea, I was supposed to ride 89, and it had been canceled along with 90. 91 and 92 also detoured via Charleston rather than going through Columbia and Raleigh.
Wow, I didn't hear about the Silver Star detour. Well hey on the bright side that probably made those trains super early into Florida and DC respectively.
wow that turned from an amtrak passenger train to a freakin amtrak freight train in seconds :)

Gosh how much snow did they get 3-5 feet? I thought trains were supposed to fly through snow no problem.
