Amtrak 2 & 92 |
Description: |
The Amtrak Capitol Limited which runs from Chicago to Washington, was sidelined in Connellsville from February 5th through February 12th due to it striking three downed trees that had fell across the tracks during the winter storms. One tree was stuck under the front locomotive and another one under a coach. The train crew was able to get the trees out, but had to go off duty afterward due to the hours of service law. A crew to replace them was unable to reach the train due to the closing of some roads. Passengers were taken by bus to Pittsburgh after being stranded 22 hours. From there they boarded a waiting Amtrak in Pittsburgh to resume their trip to Chicago. Also there has been a 130 car coal train wreck in the mountain area of Meyersdale Pa which is clogging all rail traffic between Connellsville and Cumberland on the Keystone Subdivision. The deep snow is hampering cleanup efforts. |

NS 9349, Amtrak 142, Amtrak 18 |
Description: |
Norfolk Southern 9349 C40-9W is pulling/escorting the Amtrak P030 train due to the Amtrak 142 engine striking a vehicle today in Cleveland. Damage to it appeared minimal but it reportedly had brake damage and could no longer lead. This engine is certainly not geared for passenger service as it takes much longer to get going when pulling out. |

The train was 45 minutes late but that allowed just enough sun to be shining on it. |

Amtrak 145 and 86 (2) |
Description: |
Train PO30-16 restarts east from the station in Connellsville after arriving approximately four hours late due to a large fire near a NS rail line in Alliance, Ohio. Leading is the Phase III 40th anniversary heritage unit. Getting a photograph of an Amtrak train in full sunlight around here is a rarity, and having #145 on the front made it extra special. The engine had been in Chicago the previous weekend for National Train Day. This train only made a "conditional" stop in Connellsville, due to it being so late. That means it only stopped to drop off passengers and did not pick any up. |

Amtrak 92 |
Description: |
The Amtrak Capitol Limited which runs from Chicago to Washington, was sidelined in Connellsville from February 5th through February 12th due to it striking three downed trees that had fell across the tracks during the winter storms. One tree was stuck under the front locomotive and another one under a coach. The train crew was able to get the trees out, but had to go off duty afterward due to the hours of service law. A crew to replace them was unable to reach the train due to the closing of some roads. Passengers were taken by bus to Pittsburgh after being stranded 22 hours. From there they boarded a waiting Amtrak in Pittsburgh to resume their trip to Chicago. Also there has been a 130 car coal train wreck in the mountain area of Meyersdale Pa which is clogging all rail traffic between Connellsville and Cumberland on the Keystone Subdivision. The deep snow is hampering cleanup efforts. |

Amtrak 93 |
Description: |
The daily PO30 Capitol Limited rolls up to the station platform in Connellsville with a very battle-scarred #93 leading. It was 47 minutes late but the light would have been really bad here if it arrived on time. The Amtrak exhibit train was on this, which is the only reason I came out to photograph on such a dreary day. |
