Buses will replace one of the two daily Missouri River Runner trains between Kansas City and Jefferson City on select dates between May 16 and June 21.
Train No. 311 westbound and train No. 314 eastbound will use alternate transportation only for the Kansas City-Jefferson City segment of the route and only on specific days.
The bus replacing eastbound No. 314 will depart Kansas City at 7:45 a.m., a half-hour earlier than the train schedule. At Jefferson City, passengers will transfer from the bus to the train for the remaining stations to the east, departing a half-hour behind the normal schedule.
All rail service will be maintained between Jefferson City and St. Louis. Evening service train No. 313 westbound and train No. 316 eastbound will operate normally.
Trains will operate on normal schedules when UP crews are not working, including Memorial Day weekend.
The St. Louis-Kansas City Missouri River Runner is sponsored by the Missouri Department of Transportation and serves eight intermediate cities.
