I was out at Lockport last night waiting for the HC's. Luckily, I saw one of them. 118 on #17. While waiting for #19, an announcement was made saying that it was late due to Freight Train Interference. No freight came through at all. I made a point to stay maybe another 15 minutes...still nothing. I was losing my light, so I headed home. Just a little while ago, I heard that Amtrak 305 caught on fire in Lemont, the next stop from Lockport, around the time I left last night. The HC's run on the same track as the Southbound Amtrak's. I'm guessing that the fire held up the HC's...or maybe there was another problem?
