Bad Start For Holiday Travel -- Washington Amtrak, On Its Inaugural Trip, Derails Onto The Highway

Awful, horrifying stuff out of Washington. Bad start for holiday travel… we got trains falling onto highways in Washington and just yesterday the busiest airport in the world went powerless. A week before Christmas mind you. Atlanta airport went without power. Bad couple stories to digest before heading home for the holidays. Really puts everything into perspective. We have actual nightmares imagining a 3 or 4 hour delay for our trip home during the most miserable time of the year to travel; meanwhile there are trains up in Washington flying off the rails.

Ts & Ps with everyone involved. Don’t wish delays upon my worst enemies let alone this. Awful stuff.
