MARC Service this evening may be affected by severe weather -- strong storms are presently approaching the MARC service area from the west. A severe thunderstorm watch has been issued for the entire area. High winds, downed trees, and flood conditions can cause significant delays to train service. MARC will closely monitor the weather situation and work closely with our host railroads to minimize delays. Passengers should closely monitor the MARC Service Alerts (via text, email, and Twitter) for up-to-date information throughout this evening's service.

Safety is the top priority of MARC, Amtrak, Bombardier and CSX Transportation and we will always take the safety course of action – even if it results in train delays. We thank you for your patience and understanding, and for riding MARC Train.
