I keep an eye almost daily on Amtk long distance trains on YouTube, 3,4,5,6,7,8, 48,49 and these trains are mostly never on time, sometimes 5or 6 hrs late on the Chicago West Coast runs. I’ve watched people just give up and leave intermediate stations like La Plata, Mo when the Chief doesn’t show up. Doesn’t Amtrak leadership realize that for some timekeeping is important and would be riders won’t consider train travel at all if schedules aren’t met or does the brass figure they are at the mercy of the freight railroads and thus will only cater to leisure travelers? And another thing that Amtrak Track Your Train website is almost worthless continuously posting inaccurate information on train arrivals and departures.
