Amtrak Train Stuck In Oregon Heading Back To Seattle

SEATTLE, WA - An Amtrak train stuck on tracks in Oregon with 183 people on board has begun the journey back to Seattle, Amtrak said Tuesday morning.

Coast Starlight Train 11 left Seattle on Sunday bound for Los Angeles. The train hit a tree that had fallen across the tracks just after 6 p.m. that night, stranding the train. Meanwhile, a snowstorm dumped on the tracks.

"We've been stuck here for 24 hours now, we're running low on supplies," passenger Rebekah Dodson said in a video posted on Twitter. Also in her video, Dodson talked to other passengers, some who had been on the train for more than 30 hours since leaving Puget Sound.

Although the train is "on the move," it will be delayed returning to Seattle, Amtrak said.
