Just FYI Train 4 of 7th from LAX just passed the Hesperia Cajon Railcams at 855 PM PT 2055 PT . HESPERIA CA is about 5 to 10 miles compass south of VIctorville CA which is about 30 miles south of Barstow CA. This specific train is NOT Trackign on AMtrak tracker and Transitdocs Live Amtrak Map. The recent SW Chief disruptions were caused by Major Derailment at Truxton AZ. That derailment closed Much of te BNSF Seligman sub for about 2 days Amtrak REVESED adn TERminated train 3 at Flagstaff on Weds night 6th June. This was done to keep Amtrak trains OFF of super Jammed and busy RR during derailment cleanup.
This resulted in a Train 4 eastbound that STARTED in Flagstaff at 0630 AM MT on THURSday 7 June, 2018. That created an Amtrak numbering conflict because Amtrak did not number this stub train as somethign like 1004 . That is the procedure that is done with the daylight saving time or standard time rollover twice each calendar year.
