They were supposed to get out Friday, but they had some issues and weren't able to turn a wheel. Not an earth shattering issue, that was resolved and they went out Saturday instead. I can't publically share many details of whats going on, but I can share that company officials are being very...

Lol! I got a good chuckle out of this!

As planned, trains are turning in LNC. 43/42 are going through. 601, 605, 640, 642, 600, and 644 are the only morning trains that go through. Service resumes in the afternoon with 609 and 654.

One of the trainsets was testing between Philly and Paoli today doing multiple round trips.

TS 8 to Beantown on the 1st. Scheduled to follow 172. NOT an April Fools Joke.

The plan is to add cars.

No. We don’t have checked bags on or off at Etown as it’s not a staffed station. Should you want to check bags, check them to Lancaster where they can get them off.
