49-21 had a Horizon coach first out (assume it was deadhead) and an extra coach (assume it was from NY).
First extra coach I've seen since last Christmas season.

On the 18th, the Shore Line was closed to Amtrak trains for about 6 1/4 hrs due to fallen branches/overhead
wires near Canton Jct. What I don't know is why the last Amtrak west of Boston before the shutdown, 171,
lost 5 hrs BOS-Providence. Did they hit a tree or pull down the wires?
Thanks

Was the Providence Line (Amtrak Shore Line) shut down during the day on Dec 18 due to trees/wires down

I learned that the grant pays for planning and design and that the connector will be about 2.5 miles long. Is it still the West Baltimore/Halethorpe area?

What are the maximum speeds on the Worcester Line east and west of Framingham?

6704 was spotted in a cut from Beech Grove that CARDINAL 51 picked up on 9-11 and took to Chicago.
I presume it is one of the freshly overhauled units.

Did an Amtrak train pull down wires somewhere between Providence and Wickford during the afternoon
of the 5th? Were the MBTA trains abler to get by?

A CSX bulletin shows new TK 2 in service between CP JK and CP Vale. Also shows Rule 562 (operation by cab signals in lieu of intermediate block signals) along with PTC between CPF SL and CPF LJ. I believe this is the only R-562/PTC in effect over the former B&M.
