  • On June 3, I went to Halethorpe for the first time in 6 months to see some action during the pandemic. Trains are still running on reduced schedules, but Amtrak recently resumed Acela and Keystones after a 2-month suspension. MARC trains have been running on their reduced "R" schedule since mid-MArch, providing service for essential employees.
    During the slowdown, Amtrak started working on their track upgrade project, raising speeds in order to increase capacity on this congested section of the line. Various Maintenance of Way (MOW) equipment and a work diesel were seen on this day.

      @@JBtrainman O.K. Thanks, That Makes Sense, For The New Acelas Especially, Also, What's Your Opinion On Them? I Think Their Horns Are Blah, Both The ACS-64's And Old Acelas Have(Had) Better Horns.
