1/13/12

Finally after 7 months, I'm back on a train! "I'm headed to Florida to get some sand in my shoes ..."

Train #83 departed KIN on time at 10:37 AM. Arrival in NLC on time at 11:17 AM. So far so good.

Train #83 is still on time at STM. It looks to be an on time arrival into NYP!

Just crossed Hell's Gate Bridge at 1:35 PM. Wouldn't you know it - my power at my seat does not work and I need a charge!

Boarded 97 about 2:50, and THEN they realized the baggage car (on the rear) was off the platform and they could not load bags! So they had to move 97 up further on track 15!

Remaining on time or early thru PHL.

Dinner from before WIL to BAL. I had the steak - not flat iron but good enough. Desert was Florida Orange Cheesecake - kind of like an orange Popsicle. Saw Bill who boarded at BAL.

Arrived in WAS early. Must wait 30 minutes and switch locomotives.

Departed WAS and ALX on time.

More to follow!
