Amtrak Service Today: Slightly Limited, But Operational
Laughing at those suckers with airplane tickets because you're holding an Amtrak reservation? Uh, you might want to rein that in a bit. Due to the heavy snow, downed trees and power lines on the tracks in Virginia, the Carolinas and over most of the mid-Atlantic and Northeast, Amtrak has canceled some trains. But DCist has also been hearing accounts of sterling Amtrak service, so be sure to check your train status before you head out to Union Station.
