Amtrak Is Scrambling to Restore Canceled Trains
Quick Glance: Metra trains will run as scheduled, and Amtrak is attempting to "quickly restore canceled trains" following a tentative freight railroad agreement.
  • Metra trains on the BNSF and Union Pacific North, Northwest, and West lines will run as scheduled Thursday night, according to the commuter rail agency.

  • Freight railways directly own and operate the four BNSF and Union Pacific lines, and any work stoppage was likely to impact service on those lines.

  • As commuters wait for passenger trains, a BNSF freight train passes through Aurora's Route 59 Metra rail station on Sept.

  • Five of Metra's other lines are similarly dependent on freight railroads in some way, such as being dispatched by them.

Quick Glance: US House backs bill averting national rail strike, forcing unions to accept deal
  • In response to that worry, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi added a second vote on Wednesday to add seven days of paid sick leave each year for train workers covered by the pact.

  • The demand for increased paid sick leave was a major stumbling block in the negotiations.

  • Pelosi sought to frame Democrats and the Biden administration as union supporters, slamming rail corporations for cutting jobs, increasing worker hours, and sacrificing safety.

  • The agreement did not address workers' worries about difficult-to-take-a-day-off schedules and a lack of more paid sick days.
