Amtrak will suspend its passenger rail service between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia beginning Wednesday and all of its passenger service in Pennsylvania will be shut down as of Thursday because of a reduction in demand for the service, the railroad said.
Amtrak runs a morning train daily between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, with stops in Greensburg, Latrobe and Johnstown. The train returns in the afternoon, with stops in Johnstown, Latrobe, Greensburg and Pittsburgh.
All Pennsylvania trains operated by Amtrak, including those running from Harrisburg to Philadelphia, will cease operations as of Thursday, Amtrak said.
Amtrak did not say when it would resume passenger service.
Amtrak said it is waiving change fees on all existing or new reservations made before April 30. To change reservations, log in to your account or go to Modify Trip on Amtrak.com, or find your reservation from your account on the home screen in the Amtrak mobile app.
A fare difference may apply to a passenger’s new itinerary. To cancel a reservation, call 800-USA-RAIL, which is not available via Amtrak.com or the app.
