Well seeing as I have a UP Eugene conductor sleeping on my couch because he cannot hold Eugene due to cutbacks on the Cascade sub, I would say this would be a bad idea. I am hoping the CORP shuts down the hill, it means more traffic on the Cascade sub.
Also if the pipe dream of Coos Bay becoming an intermodal facility comes through, Uncle Pete would be taking back the Coos Bay branch in a hot second.
