I was on the Zephyr a few years ago when it made an unscheduled stop in Lovelock, NV, to remove a passenger. Sheriff was there to meet the train. The story I heard was that passenger had been rude to a dining car attendant, then they escalated and got into it with the conductor. Of all the places to be stranded by Amtrak, Lovelock is not one where I would want to be.

Quite the mystery at Elkhart--lots of cops though. That meet at Austell and the three-way in Fairport were really cool, and it was good to see 4822 at the Curve and that lovely sunset in Waupaca--also, hi to the guy on the ship! Another great one--thank you!

So they kicked her out at a crossing with a sheriff's car to pick her up. She was screaming about how she was going to get home, and the conductor was not my problem.
