Bear Creek and South Jackson Operations - BC&SJ III Op Sessions - Mar 1, 2008 - 30
There was a slight problem at the Pocatello staging area. Seems there weren't enough tracks and there's no place for the BCXE to pull in and tie up with blocking an outbound train. Unfortunately this sort of thing happens when train ordering isn't carefully though out and too many trains are in one place at a time. The Superintendent of Nearly Everything ended taking the SP passenger train on track 1 and moving it to track 4 long enough for PLE and BCXE to pull into track 1 then the passenger train was moved back to track 1 so the Deschutes Hauler West on track 4 could get out. Maybe another staging track is needed (but is not likely to get built)?
