Trip report Amtrak #51, the cardinal, and #5 the Zepher. We arrived at South Portsmouth's amtrak station in kentucky around 9:30PM, wayyyy to early for our 10:41PM cardinal train to chicago. so we decided to cross the road to the speedway gas station and pick up dinner, which in my case was a...

This thread is for when times in trainz where you just felt so dumb after doing somthign you relise was a mistake or somthing. Mine is today when i saw a red signal (previous had been green) and i plugged it. I ended up sliding past the signals but was not on the main. I waited about 10 mintues...
