<p>According to the proposed schedule, Number 1 will depart NO at 9:00 a.m. on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. It will arrive in Houston at 6:18 p.m. and San Antonio at 12:05 a.m. It will depart SA at 2:45 a.m. and arrive in El Paso at 1:22 p.m., Tucson at 6:45 p.m., Maricopa at 8:52 p.m. and Los Angeles at 5:35 a.m. Sleeping car passengers will be able to stay on the train in LA until 6:30 a.m. The schedule for Number 2 shows it leaving LA at 10:00 p.m. on Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday, with arrivals in Tucson at 7:28 a.m., SA at 4:50 a.m., Houston at 11:10 a.m. and NO at 9:40 p.m. </p> <p>If I remember correctly, the new schedule is close to the one that was in effect prior its being revised because the UP could not get the Sunset over its system on time. </p> <p>Reducing the dwell time in SA for westbound passengers connecting from the Texas Eagle is a plus for me. However, if I want to go from Austin to New Orleans, the connections would not be as good as the current schedule.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
