Running late by 1 hr and 45 mins. Amtrak #6 stopped at FMG station with 3 Fort Morgan Police cars waiting for the Zephyr. A passenger had refused to wear a mask as per Amtrak Rules. Amtrak notified the Fort Morgan PD and the recalcitrant passenger was escorted off the train. As related by one of the Amtrak crew [on the video] the passenger was going to McCook Ne. I believe he got on at Denver. Three hours+ is not that big of imposition. The Rules are Rules. Wearing a mask is not that big of a deal. Three passengers ended their trip at Ft Morgan. Once the passenger sans-mask was off the train the Hi ball was given and consist was off to McCook. The power was two P42DCs 180 and 39.
CZ #6 was caught on the Martinez Sub by Adam Ghimenti yesterday [Aug 7].
Tip of the hat to the crew, I hope your remainder of the trip goes a little more serenely.
I hope Angela, Gracie and the Amtrak fans liked the video. I am hoping one of these trips of #6 is on time and in the daylight.
I was looking for the music from Dragnet for background but I would be in conflict with copyright and lot of people wouldn't recognize it.
