Amtrak service between Vancouver and the U.S. was halted Sunday, as 26 trains on the Cascades route were taken out of service.
According to the company, its Horizon trainsets have been sidelined across the country – including on the route that runs between Vancouver, B.C., and Eugene, Ore. – due to “identified concerns with this aging equipment.”
Buses will replace trains until replacement cars can be secured, Amtrak said.
“Amtrak will notify the states of Washington and Oregon as soon as a plan is in place to move replacement trains to the Pacific Northwest,” said an update on the company’s website.
The company previously announced that a new fleet of trains would be coming to the Cascades route in 2026.
