Seems to me that "siding improvements" don't have much value if UP promptly stuffs the sidings with spare cars. The purpose of a siding is to allow trains to meet without losing time. I should think that if the government wants to pay to upgrade the sidings, UP should be required to agree that the sidings would not be used as their off-site storage.
