>If the UP had decided to notch all tunnels on both
tracks, they might be able to still use Donner in
this case. (And in other similar cases.) And that
might give them a bit more operating flexibility, too.

Notching the tunnels on track two between Bowman and [New] Colfax was in the original plan, but BANG, POW, the money gave out. Maybe this will hasten a reassment of the situation.
