<p>[quote user="YoHo1975"]I hope they don't expect to get any coal in the fall, because the SP&S and UP blue mountain routes are packed with grain trains and are at capacity. BNSF has a capacity problem going into Seattle with bad passes over both the GN and the NP. the Gorge doesn't have the capacity sadly and there's no room to double track.[/quote]</p><p>That's probably why they chose Kalama. They can bring in imported coal when the railroads can't deliver.</p>
