[QUOTE]Originally posted by SteveD: [QB] Density of traffic may not be as significant to UP's decision as stability of track, vulnerability to weather impacts, and peak loading. The track along Hoover is beyond the Garden Grove industrial park where, I suspect, most of the volume of traffic on this line originates or terminates. The Hoover stretch is, however, where the junctions are for the Seal Beach Naval Weapons Depot (munitions and such dangerous cargo, plus seasonal tonnage of sand for local beach replenishment), and for the Southern California Edison heavy service facility, where multi-ton transformers are brought periodically for maintenance(some on Schnaebel cars), using the original NWD connection. More local observers than I will have to offer car counts. Don, when you say the rail has been "laid" well into HB, do you mean just dropped(as you first described it along Hoover) or actually already spiked? [/QB][/QUOTE]
