<p>[quote user="Euclid"]My point was to ask why you cannot interrupt the freight operation to let the Amtrak train through.[/quote]</p> <p>Do you remember the moves involved? Forward out of the auto loading siding onto the main. Backing into the siding on the other side of the main. So until the work is completed the main is fouled. The only way to "interrupt it is to let it not even start.</p> <p>[quote user="Euclid"] The freight is in the clear already, and all that needs to be done is re-line the switch for 91. Why did the freight work have to be completely finished before letting 91 through? [/quote]</p> <p>The way I understand it the work is complete when the CSX train is in the siding, the switch realigned to normal and the authority given back to the dispatcher.</p> <p>Or did I misunderstand your question?<br />Regards, Volker</p>
