NEW ORLEANS — Amtrak’s City of New Orleans continues to operate over only a portion of its route as Canadian National crews continue to repair damage in the wake of Hurricane Ida.
An Amtrak advisory notes that effective with the Wednesday, Sept. 8, southbound departure from Chicago, the train will operate to Jackson, Miss., with northbound service originating from Jackson as of Thursday, Sept. 9. The train had previously been terminating and originating in Memphis.
Amtrak is not providing substitute transportation for the 188 miles between Jackson and New Orleans.
Service to New Orleans has been restored for the Crescent and Sunset Limited.
