I was wondering if BNSF has made any statements, I live along the main line and work in Ottumwa and wonder if the are suspending operations or rerouting do to the Des Moines River. Amtrack has suspended some areas of service.

The BNSF Ottumwa Sub is now closed in your area. No more Trains until further notice.
