I'm pretty anxious (as I'm sure everyone else is) to get a look at the November schedule change. Any word on when they will be made public?
Happy railroading.

You answered my question before I could ask it. Looking forward to it! B)Superliner Diner said:As I always do, I'm currently scanning the changes and will provide a synopsis when ready.
I have a feeling Nativeson5859 may be interested in the new system wide timetable, not just Silver Service. And BTW there have been a few minor changes to the schedule since you posted it, though only differing in a few minutes or so on the new actual schedule. I would imagine the new national timetable will be available in a couple of weeks. .......OBS EMPLbattalion51 said:I did post the new Silver Service schedule in this topic.
If you wanna talk on that line regarding the major change of the Silver Service trains; that is a totally different issue. But I think "nativeson" may be or have been more interested in the new National Timetable being there are considerable changes nationwide this time. You only posted the proposed "Silver Service" timetable. And there are some slight changes within minutes in that new schedule since you posted it (and as you say "no big deal")! One thing to keep in mind, however, is whether CSX has "actually" approved the proposed new schedule. Technically CSX has a hand in the decision when the train(s) will run, too!battalion51 said:Couple minutes, no biggie, couple hours, biggie. I think they'll see a ridership dropoff and go back to something closer to what they have now.
I suspect that CSX was so happy to be able to drop Amtrak from the S-line, that they approved the new Meteor schedule as part of the deal in the same handshake.Amtrak OBS Employee said:One thing to keep in mind, however, is whether CSX has "actually" approved the proposed new schedule.

But in regard to the coming changes, I am positive in the "grand scheme" of things that actual "rail" service on the S-line IS history, in other words never to return! I am sure THAT makes CSX very happy!
