ADDRESS:

On December 4, 2001, Alderson Station was eliminated from Amtrak Timetables.  The flag station, Alderson, was located between Hinton and White Sulphur Springs on the route of Cardinal (Chicago - Cincinnati - Washington, DC).  When I visited the station on Aug. 30, 2001, paint job had just finished.  Although Cardinals (train #50 and #51) are still operated, the trains don't stop at the new orange-painted station.  I hope the trains will stop there again.

NOTE 1:
Alderson came back to Fall 2002 / Winter 2003 Amtrak Timetable.  Although the departure time isn't listed yet, it will resume operation soon.

NOTE 2:
Alderson is still listed on Fall 2003 / Winter 2004 Amtrak Timetable.  However, Cardinals don't stop at this station yet.  I don't know why.  Does anybody have information about Alderson Station's future?

NOTE 3:
Cardinal began stopping at Alderson in Fall 2004.  It took very long time, but the station came back to normal.  Alderson is still a Flag Stop Station.
