Seeing the news today and realizing that Poplar Buff, Mo has several rail lines that run thru the area that is expected to be affected by the dam/levee failure will Amtrak be affected?
Apparently, Mandatory evacuations are taking place for the towns 17,000 residents as the levee/dam failure is imminent
Some media links...

The link to the Poplar Bluff Police Department Twitter has limited information

And I could not get detail on the Amtrak route map to determine how near/far the line through South Missouri runs.
Between the St. Louis Airport Area and this it seems the fine folks in Missouri are really having a rough time. My thoughts and prayers to them.
Not sure if the Amtrak line runs through or near that area.
Anyone know?
