ETA - called 1-800-USA-RAIL and the agent on the line handled it.

Update: looks like they’re starting to update their ticketing system to reflect the new timetables. I’m probably expecting to get another phone call from Amtrak sometime later today or tomorrow, claiming that they want to speak to me about my upcoming trip.

Amtrak has released the schedule! But Arrow hasn't been updated to reflect this yet. https://www.pacificsurfliner.com/globalassets/pdfs/schedules/1037272220_pacific-surfliner-timetable_modified-1-31-2023_wknd-srvc-restored-to-slo.pdf/

I see the Amtrak reservation system hasn’t updated to reflect the changes yet.

Looks like this will be the case as, on Thursday, I was rebooked onto 1758/785 (on 2/5) and 774/1774 (2/8) on the phone. Will still be in Business Class thankfully.

Additionally, no Surfliner service between Goleta and SLO until repairs are completed due to storms.

Email update confirms project delayed.

Only problem is they can’t. There are houses right along the tracks and they can’t wake people at night.

I think you meant from Oceanside to Irvine?

https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2022-12-30/san-clemente-railroad-landslide-spot-rain-causes-no-movement Hopefully service can resume sooner than later, I am flying out to San Diego on 2/5 and taking the Surfliner up to ANA that same day.

Such action already passed the house yesterday, and I’m sure it’s due to pass in the Senate. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/11/30/statement-from-president-joe-biden-on-house-action-to-avert-rail-shutdown/

Article did mention a possible earlier reopen by the half-way point.

That or entirely new service between NOLA and at least Miami.

FYI, given current information and barring unforeseen circumstances, tomorrow’s 52 & 53 will operate. Tomorrow’s 91 & 97 will resume full service, as will Saturday’s 92 & 98.

Actually November 19. And that reminds me, I'm going out to Savannah, GA and West Palm Beach, FL Nov 13-17, perhaps I should book a backup flight from MIA-MCO just in case?

Yep. I'm due to go on to Meteor in November, hopefully things should be fine by then.
