Late No 8 on 8/20

[going to the sun sue]

Fellow train people...Any info on train no 8 that left Seattle on the 18th and now is running :angry2: way sooo late..Thanks

From the data it looks like #8 started late due to a late equipment turn and then gradually lost more time. Maybe in part due to being out of it's "slot" in relation to freight traffic and having to wait at sidings or travel slowly behind freight.
