Tied Down Southbound UP Manifest Train  Contributor's Pick!       
We're sitting dead at CP I074 is UP Train MCHTR 08. We went on duty at 23:45, and our crew ended up being on duty 16 hours and 4 minutes. This effectively blocked both main tracks, since the other was occupied by men and equipment replacing ties with new ones like the bundle shown to the right.
