Was that because extra cars were being added to handle passengers from the cancelled Lake Shore?48/448 and 49/449 were canceled for leaving on the 17th, but according to Amtrak Alerts Twitter, Cap Ltd 30(17) was delayed due to "mechanical issues". They had previously had signal issues in the Chicago area. Getting the equipment to NYC and Boston and back? Maybe? Folks would be rolling in vouchers to take the Cap Ltd/Cardinal and transfer to the NEC to get around the mess.
The only exceptions may be Empire Service Train 284 East from Syracuse, New York. It left 2 minutes late today and is shown as not cancelled tomorrow, Sat. Nov. 19. It's Zero percent full and sold out both days! It is cancelled at Rochester, New York, etc. I can't find a matching Westbound train.
