Since the question posed relates to Amtrak, I'll keep this topic open here. But please only discuss how the story relates to Amtrak. All other comments should be posted in this topic currently running in the Commuter forum. Thanks!

Any posts not Amtrak related will be moved to the commuter topic.

That's the goal. Anyway, has Amtrak ever had a similar situation?

Not with someone that high up in the organization, anyway.

Yeah, this topic can be deleted.
