Just wondered if soemone can provide a summary of current BNSF ops over Marias pass as far as number of trains, days or times of day that may be better or worse than others, helper operations (does every train get help or are they running DPU and only helping certain rains) etc. My understanding is that besides several intermodela, traffic is primarily grain extras and therefore may not be very consistent or predictable from one day to the next?
