Coast starlight cancellations?
Hi! have booked the coast starlight from Los Angeles to Seattle king station for late next month.
I’ve been following the trains status for a couple of days and it seems that everyday is changed to a bus to Bakersfield and then 717 train to Martinez, CA where the coast starlight is picked up.
I’ve been looking for service announcements but can’t find anything. Is this a weather issue or is there something else going on, anybody know?
hopefully it will be back to normal soon?
thanks
Edit: found the reason..(though not on Amtrak website)
