I recently took the Sunset Limited from southern CA to New Orleans. On the way to NOLA we stopped in Houston. When we resumed the trip the train moved slowly for maybe 2 miles or so. We came to a stop and started to back up. I thought we may be backing up all the way to the station but we eventually stopped. After a short stop we continued forward and were soon on another track. Apparently we missed the turn the first time. I haven't traveled on trains all that much so wasn't sure if it was half way common or not. Would the crew catch some flak since they apparently recognized the error very soon and were able to fix it?
