WASHINGTON --
Amtrak said it would resume some train service to New Orleans today
that was suspended in anticipation of Hurricane Ivan making
landfall in the city.
Amtrak said the
City of New Orleans, which travels between Chicago and New Orleans,
will begin operation first, while the Sunset Limited, which serves
Los Angeles, New Orleans and Orlando, will resume service pending
an assessment of track damage if any.
