All trains between Washington and Baltimore were canceled due to a “system wide outage.”
VRE and MARC commuter rail says to prepare for cancellations and to seek alternative travel. Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor should not be affected by the strike, but other routes might be.
It’s a chance to ride just one way of the C&O Canal, or to toodle around the trails out in West Virginia and avoid cycling the 60-ish mile journey there entirely.
Service on the Penn Line is suspended.
Passengers’ tickets will also be checked once they’re on the train.
Trains will operate south to Greenbelt where passengers will be offloaded and transferred to Metro.
But expect delays.
Be advised Camden and Brunswick line riders.
A man was killed by a train in Capitol Heights.
From Metro delays to road closures and power outages, the heavy rains pretty much screwed everything up for everyone.
