Sam, the platform situation is hopeless!
Yes, it appears that you have come to the only acceptable conclusion. There ain't much hope in Hope regarding the platform.

Hopefully they will repair the mismanaged project in Hope, and the citizens who hope to ride the Eagle will hopefully find it on time, which has not been the case for the past several weeks. Having zipped through Hope on several occasions on the Eagle, I am always hopeful that the train will be on-time into Little Rock.
Based on the article, I am full of hope that the authorities in Hope, with the help of UP and Amtrak, will be able to resolve the platform separation issue. I would be even more hopeful if the UP was solely in charge of the project in Hope.
