When the CNW ran things. When a Westbound would stall on the Blair hill,they would "cut" the train and take half of the Train to Kennard & run it in to Main 2 uncouple the Power then the power would run back up the hill to retreve the other half of the Train where they would reasemble it back at Kennard to continue back to Fremont. <br />But now that the UP runs things,when the same thing happends the Omaha Dispatcher would just tell them to just sit there a wait till a Westbound comes which could range from 30 minutes to more than an hour or more! Hiway 91 is the one that always gets blocked by a stalled train........ <br />I realy feel sorry for the People who have to sit there and wait at that crossing just waiting for a Train. The TRUCKERS realy get PISSED OFF!
