Schedule Change - Lakeshore Limited Apr 25 CHI > NYP

[ZSRH]

Hello this is my first post here. I am going to be taking the LSL from CHI to NYP on April 25th. I recently received an e-mail from Amtrak, stating that my itinerary had changed. From what I gather the arrival time into NYP was changed from 6:23 PM to 6:35 PM. Would like to know if this is a permanent schedule change or has something come up.

Thanks

In looking at the current schedule for the Lakeshore Ltd, it would appear that it is some kind of temporary adjustment. Most likely, there's the usual spring-summer-fall track maintenance somewhere along the route and they've added some time along the way.

@bratkinson Thanks for replying.

Only 12 minutes later than originally scheduled, let us know how that works out.

Got the same notice for an upcoming LSL trip in May. Figured they built a little more padding into the schedule.

Probably has more to do with platform slot availability at Penn Station, given the start of summer track work in the station.
