Amtrak #301 hit a truck and derailed at Brighton, IL earlier today. UP's Springfield Sub is closed to thru service, at least for now. Amtrak #303 is going to flip at Springfield to run back north as #304. Amtrak #305 will flip back at Normal to run as #306 and Amtrak #307 will tie up at Springfield/Ridgley Yard overnite to run as #300 tomorrow morning. The big news is that today's southbound Texas Eagle, Amtrak #21, will run to St. Louis via the ex-C&EI Villa Grove and Pana subs.
