Train (Almost) on Time
Mar. 12th, 2024 08:22 amAmtrak was almost on time today, being less than 30 minutes late passing Fernley this morning.
( Not bad by current standards )
Most of the times we've been traveling west on the California Zephyr, the train is almost always on time. That's sort of ironic because due to the timing into Reno, we'd usually prefer it to be a little late, so we aren't rushed eating breakfast and packing up preparing for arrival. There is not usually a hurry to disembark at Reno because it is a crew-change and fresh-air stop, but we prefer to be ready to go before arrival, and sometimes the car attendant is in a hurry to get it us out early because there's sometimes passengers booked for the compartment we are vacating.
