Sept. 26 => Amtrak trains between Vancouver and Seattle will return

[xlxo]

Too late for Alaska 2022 cruises, but for some repo's...

 

TLDR

> depart Seattle at 7:45 a.m. on Sept. 26. It'll arrive in Vancouver at 11:45 a.m.

> A return trip is scheduled to depart Vancouver at 5:45 p.m., arriving in Seattle at 10:10 p.m

> second round trip is coming once staffing and equipment is available

Interesting note is the delay in restarting was due to lack of staff, they were originally projecting to restart in December, but were able to accelerate the schedule to September with one train.  The remaining trains will be added as staffing is added.
