Mike there is no more class of trains, if dispatcher deemed it neccesary ro tun a freight first , he can do so without any problem or yelling by a chief Dispatcher.To stop that freight may have delayed more trains than holding the passenger train for a few minutes, after all the single track section over where accident happened is only like 4 miles long. By letting freight go at track speed, it only takes like 6 minutes to clear, if it stops it may take like 13 minutes to travel same section as it takes forever to get that freight back up to track speed. |
