@mike - I mentioned to you the other day that we haven't had a LS919J and Y-BK50 out of BK for awhile due to lack of traffic. Today I noticed that in our current cycle the MFRBK does not show as departed. Does that train supply the cars for LS919J and Y-BK50? The master schedule show it as a spawn at Saco siding but is it now a departure from FR?

Hey Dave, it looks like we are missing the MPXWC and MECWC from the schedule. Both of these trains enter the region from the Yuma Sub, get classified in WC, and then the LS919J and Y-BK50 traffic would come to Bakersfield on the MWCBK. It looks like the LS916J traffic is entering from the Yermo Sub on the MSCWC and getting classified to the MWCBK for the trip to Bakersfield.
I'll get the MPXWC and MECWC scheduled. I need to put more focus on the UP train operations across the region.
As you mentioned the MFRBK...what I could do quickly is create one of those right now and have it bring the LS919J and Y-BK50 traffic until the other part of the supply chain scheduling is fixed.
Mike

Hey Mike - we still have this same situation occurring at UP BK. We're not getting traffic into BK that would feed Y-BK50 and LS919J which results in little outbound traffic for MBKWC. These would be nice locals to keep in operation as Y-BK50 has to deal with UP mainline traffic to work customers at Edison while LS919J is one of those local runs that can do significant off-session work once it gets off the mainline. Maybe we could have pre-built spawns of MWCBK and MFRBK to feed these locals on a regular basis.

Sorry for the super slow response. I have just spawned a MFRBK at Saco Siding just north of Bakersfield. We will get this into UP Bakersfield Yard during the session tonight.
