Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...we made past mid-week! Hurrah!!

Trains on time...maintenance causing issues yet?

[ConorMacNessa]

Trains have been on time on my line. My Brunswick Line peeps have been suffering all week. The derailment was cleaned up in time for them to run trains again today. So early this afternoon a tree goes down over the tracks in the Nuclear Free Zone of Garrett Park, (Montg'y Cy.) MD. All of the afternoon trains were delayed or cancelled.

Query: How long does it take government in one of the richest counties in the Nation to remove a fallen tree from the tracks of a major rail line? (Not only the MARC Commuter Trains run on that line, but all westbound traffic (Amtrrac) from Washington, DC.)
