Hey guys, we just got a high wide alarm, Axel 244 on-air train.
00:05
Let's comply with our SSI here.
00:07
And I've got maintainers work in main track one between Diaz-007, Diaz-005.
00:13
You're going to be able to safely stop short of Diaz-007 over?
00:16
To as safe a stop as you can, UP dispatch 378 Egan, over.
00:21
Dispatch 378, Maine hits away, Arvada, Main 1, CNS Junction, Main 1, over.
00:26
U.P. Dispatch 378, Phillip Egan, over.
00:28
CP dispatcher 378 Egan, over.
00:31
Egan, over.
00:33
on the floor.
00:34
It's again.
00:35
I think so far as far as fast as a lot of state.
00:37
One, thank you, Scott.
00:38
I'm sorry.
00:39
UP dispatch for 378, Phillip Began, or any maintenance away.
00:43
Main Track 1, Moss Tunnel subs, CBDF 007, CBD at 005, over.
00:47
I have an eastbound train.
00:49
They just caught the shifted load detector.
00:51
I've been trying to get a hold of you.
00:52
You need to stay as clear of Main Track 2 as you possibly can.
00:56
They have a shifted load.
00:57
They're not going to be able to stop short of CPDF 007.
01:00
If you can, clear the tracks away from Main Track 2.
01:03
Over? I don't know why I believe it was on 203.
01:06
BN3992, go ahead, over?
01:07
I was trying to call you on four teams there, saying they got a shifted log detector going on everybody to keep clear of main track C over.
01:17
Yeah, this side of the, of 16, everybody's on 14th.
01:22
We're going to need to complete our inspection where we are until I can get a good briefing with these guys.
01:28
In the meantime, with you all stops, I can take back CPD at 007.
01:32
Is that all correct? Over? I can copy that, taking it back now.
01:34
Thanks guys. And I have your adjacent tracks protected here where you are, there really aren't any over.
01:41
Thank you. Disfetch out.
01:42
Our eastbound train coming towards Arvada, they got tripped up by the high white detector, so shifted load detector.
01:52
They were able to get safely stopped short of CPS 007.
01:55
I was trying to contact John Clay Towers.
01:57
Is there a reason we were doing this on 23s, over?
01:59
Copy that, we had conflicting channels yesterday working on our standard radio for this area.
02:04
If we're going to have it on 23s, we're going to have to be able to monitor 14s, because 14s is what's supposed to cover where you're working.
02:13
So that might be something we need to just be able to monitor while we're working.
02:18
Well,
02:19
not your fault.
02:20
You have it in your tag that you're on 23s.
02:22
There's just,
02:23
it's pretty non-standard to be doing work here, not on 14.
02:27
So, but train did get safely stopped there, so.
02:29
Yeah, you don't have to clear the tracks away from main two there.
02:35
I was just worried that if they actually did have a shifted load, some of your equipment might be affected here.
