PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. — Amtrak has resumed selling tickets for the much-interrupted Adirondack to Montreal and plans to resume service on Sept. 11, WAER radio reports, but the station quotes an Amtrak spokesman as saying the company still needs to 'work out several operational details to make that date happen.' Operations north of Albany were halted June 24, only about seven weeks after the train began operating to Montreal after a three-year hiatus, because of heat-related speed restrictions imposed by Canadian National on the Canadian portion of the route [see 'Amtrak abruptly suspends ‘Adirondack' …,' Trains News Wire, June 26, 2023].
