The family's first overnight trip on the train is off to an inauspicious start. We left Boston right on time on train 195 at 6:40 am. Shortly after passing Attleborough, we stopped briefly and started cruising at a stately 15-20 mph. The conductor just announced that there is a signal issue (based on our stop and go, it seems there is a lack of signals) and we'd be slow-rolling all the way to Providence. The 40 minute connection to the Silver Star seems a little dicey. Sigh. This may be the first and last family overnighter.
