It would have been nice, but we didn't exactly have the advance notice for that; at some point, the dispatcher ordered us to move on out and so we had to; they didn't provide enough advance notice for several early warnings.Apparently, the dispatcher had us move out so that we'd be positioned to pass through the wreck site first as soon as it was cleared; BNSF actually put their own trains on sidings to let us through, which was rather unusual for a freight road. They did warn that if we weren't in position to pass through the wreck site as soon as MOW gave the all clear, they would start putting their own trains through. |
