Amtrak pulls train services in Cascades; here's what you need to know
WASHINGTON — Several Amtrak routes nationwide have been canceled after the company discovered corrosion on its Horizon railcars.
A total of 70 passenger cars across the country are affected, including 26 cars on the Amtrak Cascades route, Amtrak told KIRO 7. Amtrak said instead of taking a railcar, passengers will be taking a bus.
In the short term, Amtrak said buses have been secured through March 30. Passengers will board buses at the Amtrak stations where trains stop.
The trains pulled affect nearly all trips on Amtrak Cascades daily service to 18 stations between Vancouver, British Columbia and Eugene, Oregon.
The only trips that will be served by the one remaining non-Horizon train are #503 and #508, traveling daily between Seattle and Eugene.
