Amtrak to Suspend Express Shipping Service

Amtrak recently posted a notice that it is suspending express shipping effective Oct. 1.

The notice said the suspension is “until further notice.”

The last date for accepting express shipments will be Sept. 15 in order to ensure that those shipments reach their destinations before Oct. 1.

In what it described as a “measure to ensure the health and safety” of customers and employees, Amtrak said it will temporarily be accepting only shipments under 250 pounds per customer.

It has suspended accepting the shipment of human remains.
