Can't leave the hump there - someone might get the bright idea to put tracks back down and start using it again... The Saga of Pueblo Yard (and the story of big operating ego bubbas redux)

I can't count the millions of dollars that have been 'saved' by closing and reopening various rail yards over the years. Normally one regime closes the yard and claims X millions in savings. Next regime comes on the property and opens they yard and claims X millions of savings. Rinse and repeat ad nauseum.
Never too old to have a happy childhood!

It appears the shutdown of Bailey Yard's eastbound hump has happened. There were just a few dozen hopper cars in the bowl last night, and this evening there are but two lonely cars among the sea of bowl tracks. Kinda sad.
