Guys, With Hurricane Isidore now in the Gulf of mexico and bearing down on the Gulf Coast, I was wondering if it does come to Texas and Lousiana, will the Amtrak Trains The Sunset Limited, The City of New Orleans, and The Crescent be annulled?

Its likely. Hurricane Isadore is the top news story on CBS radio this evening (9/24).
Evacuations are underway in some areas, but it sounded more like Mississippi.

depending on when the trains run through the area and when the storm is scheduled to hit, one or all of the trains can be delayed(most likely to happen) or annuled. Although with luck, Isadore will lose most of it's force when it hits land. It will cause more problems as it goes north though, so expect a heck of alot of delays in and around Boston, Washington, Philly, and New York as it runs through Thursday or Friday(depending on it's intesity after hitting land)
