Railroadforums.com is a free online Railroad Discussion Forum and Railroad Photo Gallery for railroaders, railfans, model railroaders and anyone else who is interested in railroads. We cover a wide variety of topics, including freight trains, passenger and commuter railroads, rail news and information, tourist railroads, railway museums and railroad history.
Anyone who had planned on railfanning the BNSF line between Mt. Vernon, WA and Vancouver, BC over Memorial Day weekend might want to change his/her plans. The surface roads are going to be a mess trying to handle the estimated 70,000+ vehicles/day which use that section of I-5.
Maybe the state/Amtrak/BNSF should look at adding that Talgo reported over Stevens yesterday as a temporary extra train between SEattle and BC until that bridge can be repaired.... Nah, too practical. (Then move it to Stampede as a test between Seattle and Tri-Cities)
Here, here for more passenger operations. Amtrak should jump at the chance to market a temporary third round trip train!! They'll make a killing. I just check the traffic cams for the back up in Mt. Vernon and it goes on for miles and miles!!!
