Winnemuca, Nevada

A beautiful sunset over the mountains in the Nevada Desert. It appears our first drama has happened.

The train has come to a standstill here at Winnemucca, Nevada, apparently due to a signal problem on the lines which stops us moving on until the signal problem is fixed.

Announcent is that a repair crew is on the way as we speak but we're stuck until it gets fixed, who knows how long.

The problem this causes is that our scheduled arrival in Chicago was meant to be 14:40 on Wednesday. We were to collect the car there and head to Youngstown by 22:00 ready for our official visit on Thursday. 1 hour behind schedule now means any further delays and the car rental company may be closed before we get there, no car, no arrival in Youngstown. OOPS, that will pose a serious problem to our schedule.Les mer
