Autotrain Derailed in Florida

[albiats]

this is a link to a thread I started on the Transportation Board about the Autotrain 52 that has suffered a derailment north of Sanford, Florida. It was northbound and it occured around 5:30pm.

I believe at lease one family from our 4/20 cruise were taking the auto train to Florida -- I know that this would not be them -- as the train was heading from FL to VA. BUT, I wonder if this will delay their trip to Florida. Has anyone heard if the auto train is still running?

And, if you are still out there -- islandhoppers -- I am thinking of you and hoping you arrive here safely.

Ofcourse, my prayers and thoughts go out to everyone involved in the accident and their families.
