You mean the stack trains to/from LA and the once in awhile grain trains down to the central valley? Maintaining another mainline to high speed standards so max 2-3 freights a day can end up in Davis and fight the Cal-P congestion on what is likely a longer route back to the Fresno or Oakland Subs doesn't strike me as efficient.
