Just looking at Amtrak's track a train on their site and noticed the Texas Eagle that left San Antonio Sunday morning 8/5 is 12 hours late arriving at Alton Il.  Anyone no the reason it's SO late?

No 22 was 2 hour, 2 minutes late at Dallas.  But it was 7 hours, 50 minutes late arriving Mineola, which is the next eastbound stop.  It was 10 hours, 18 minutes late into Longview.  It was 12 hours, 11 minutes late arriving Little Rock. 

Something went wrong between Dallas and Mineola, which is approximately 80 miles east Dallas.  I don't know what it was.
