Eastbound Lake Cities, Train 352 (24JAN) departed Chicago 22 min late but
only got 12 miles out when the HEP failed. Attempts were made to
restore HEP by short-looping but were unsuccessful. It was found that
Amfleet-I Dinette 43361 had a bad 480-volt socket and it was not
repairable. Account cold weather the train could not operate without
heat; it returned to Chicago and the equipment from Train 353 was turned
to replace it.
Delay 3hr 07min.
