Here come the Northeast Corridor cancellations (not a surprise given the horrible weather starting to unfold in Manhattan):
Due to the winter storm forecast to impact the Northeast Corridor, Amtrak will operate a modified schedule for the remainder of Monday, Jan. 26.Gotta love how the state of Maine is sticking to their guns and keeping the Downeaster running... Can't imagine anyone will be able to make it to the station with 2 feet of snow foretasted for most of the east coast...
Acela Express and Northeast Regional service will operate between Boston and Washington; however, passengers should expect reduced frequencies, mainly north of New York.
Corridor services, including Keystone Service (New York – Harrisburg, Pa.), Empire Service (New York – Albany, N.Y.), Amtrak Downeaster (Brunswick, Maine – Boston) and the Springfield Shuttle (New Haven, Conn. – Springfield, Mass.), will operate as scheduled.
Passengers holding reservations that require modification are being accommodated on other trains and proactively notified by Amtrak Customer Service. A range of tools, including Amtrak.com, smartphone apps and 1-800-USA-RAIL, are available to assist in travel planning.
Amtrak is actively monitoring this severe winter storm and will provide an update on Tuesday’s service later today.
