john05+FollowMichigan train breakdown leaves riders stranded in heatPassengers on Amtrak Train #352 faced a nightmare journey this week when their train broke down in rural Calhoun County, leaving everyone stuck for nearly five hours without power, air conditioning, or working toilets. The heat was unbearable, mosquitoes swarmed in, and some people even had panic attacks. What’s even more worrying is that dozens of other trains in the Midwest are still running with the same faulty sensors that caused this mess.

umccall+FollowAmtrak breakdown leaves passengers swelteringImagine being stuck on a train for hours with no AC or working restrooms. That’s what happened to passengers on an Amtrak train from Chicago to Dearborn, which broke down near Battle Creek.
