Will the port upgrades help mitigate the SJ congestion problem or is it more of a RR service/capacity problem with cp and nbsr? I’ve been impressed with the traffic volumes reported here daily

CP is still trying to hire more people, it seems like their idea of running the train pairs as a turn isn't as smooth as it should be. If they use the Moosehead for storage, they'll lose a spot to park a train there, although 120/121 are getting close to 150 wells without the manifest included. That is probably too long for that siding.

Although I'm wondering if that 8,000 feet of railcars DPW wants is including those coming east with containers on them. Things are getting busy....
