From Times Wire Reports
Amtrak’s Silver Meteor train arrived in New York from Florida more than 28 hours late on New Year’s Eve, releasing more than 100 exhausted, hungry and angry passengers.
Their train had been stuck in Jacksonville, Fla., for half a day because of a derailed CSX freight train, then stopped again in rural Georgia as they waited for the tracks to reopen.
Complaints and sighs of relief echoed through New York’s Penn Station as about 100 passengers finally stepped off the escalator from the tracks below.
