VibeGuy Posted July 3, 2017 #3 Share Posted July 3, 2017 The trains to and from Vancouver aren't usually scheduled as through trains from Portland - they usually just go back and forth Seattle-Vancouver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruising cockroach Posted July 3, 2017 #4 Share Posted July 3, 2017 The trains to and from Vancouver aren't usually scheduled as through trains from Portland - they usually just go back and forth Seattle-Vancouver. 513, the morning southbound and 516, the afternoon northbound certainly seem to be.

xlxo Posted July 7, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted July 7, 2017 It appears a safety system derailed the train to prevent a major incident. Travelling at 45mph, it was above the 40mph safety limit. http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/high-speed-caused-amtrak-derailment-washington-coast-48486185 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
