[QUOTE="John Bredin, post: 941049, member: 1646"] Train 48/448 of the 28th is cancelled due to the storm. On one hand, I don't want to second-guess Amtrak, which is facing staffing shortages in addition to foul weather, so there's a whole lot less "slack" or "give" in the system. Not to mention the bad publicity from the Southeast snowstorm not long ago. On the other hand, I took 448 all the way CHI-BOS on Christmas Day 2010 and arrived in Boston in the teeth of a blizzard. As I walked from South Station to my hotel a few blocks away, the streets were plowed (and mostly empty given the weather and the late hour) and the sidewalks well-shoveled but there was a waist-high wall of snow between them except at the intersections. 😳 [/QUOTE]
