What would happen if we were to use it for eastbound traffic instead? Would it upset the evil spirits?
Hey Jim, if you ever manage to catch one of those evil spirits while you're loitering around in train tunnels, see if you can have him/her "break on through to the other side" and convert themselves into a good witch or fairy god-mother. Then, when they're committed to doing good and kind deeds, have them come visit the Monterey Peninsula, wave their magic wand, and turn the dormant railroad track into a useful rail corridor that can be used by Amtrak and Caltrain! It would save us a lot of money, hand-wringing, speculating and bandwidth!
