Due to forecasted blizzard conditions in North Dakota and Montana this week, Amtrak has terminated its Empire Builder service between St. Paul and Spokane, Wash. The eastbound Empire Builder from Seattle ran with its full set of equipment on April 11 and 12 from Seattle to Spokane, where it terminated. On the same days, train 8 ran from St. Paul to Chicago with a reduced consist.
On April 12 and 13 the westbound Empire Builder operated from Chicago to St. Paul as a stub train with no sleeper, and between Spokane and Seattle with regular equipment. No service was operated between Spokane and St. Paul.
