Awoke "on time" at 6 AM (both me via cell alarm and #92) around Rockingham, NC. We remained on time until just before RVR. We lost time due to freight traffic and the need to get around some of the traffic by running thru the yard at the yard speed limit - 5 MPH!
This caused us to lose some time, but under 30 minutes. However, due to all stations north of RVR being "D" stations, arrival at WAS was only 14 minutes late.
At WAS, I went to the CA to charge my phone and to wait for the 10 PM departure of #66. I wanted to experience the ex-Metroliner Club with 2X1 BC seating before they disappear for good.
Had dinner in the food court of Union Station. Too cold to go out!
Boarded #66 from the CA (with a Red Cap ride) to BC. It was a ex-Metroliner BC/cafe with 18 BC seats. Departed WAS on time with 8 occupied!
Announcements were made for station stops, which is surprising. My other trips on 66/67 did not have any!
More to follow.
