This is a tunnel with a history of clearance issues, drainage issues, which were a headache for SP and are now a headache for Metrolink. Did someone dispatch a non clearing train, (high/wide load?) (Did we forget to train our replacements???) and get "stuck" as seems to be reported "generially" by media? Or, was it some other cause?
This movement routing question is interesting, too. If they really did get "stuck", were folks making these routing decisions to put a non clearing double stacks this way forget to look at the restricions? IIRC, this is Metrolink dispatched territory... So, depending on what kind of events precipitated this event, this will be kind of interesting.
It would be interesting to know why they chose this routing and where the train had been routed anyhow, considering current service disruptions, and rerouting those military trains nearly 3000 extra miles via Denver and Texas....
Suddenly, the costs of opening up the clearances on the Siskiyou tunnels, as has been proposed in the past, maybe don't look so expensive...?

Re: Obviously lost an engine and stalled... Yep, I knew that about the stacks, which is why it sounded weird. But, there are some other questions that aren't answered
