Wildfires Disrupt Amtrak Service In Western Kansas

KSCB News - June 14, 2011 7:58 am

Wildfires in New Mexico have disrupted
Amtrak service in western Kansas.
Amtrak says service on the Southwest Chief has been temporarily
suspended between Newton, Kan., and Albuquerque, N.M. because of
the fires.
The Chief will miss stops in western Kansas and parts of
southwestern Colorado and northeastern New Mexico. It will still
stop in Trinidad, Colo.; Raton, N.M.; and Las Vegas, N.M.
The Daily Southwest Chief service, which runs between Chicago
and Los Angeles, will continue to run, using motorcoaches and
commuter trains for detours.
