[QUOTE]Originally posted by atsf3751: [QB] The locals run every weekday save for holidays. Most likely, they won't run either the 24th or the 25th, so that means they will probably be making up for lost ground on the following days. The locals could be really long on these days. The street trackage is maintained in a very simple way: do nothing until absolutely necessary and then rip up the road and repair the street. Somewhat inconvinient for motorists, but it gets the job done. As for Anaheim's planned "upgrades," I certainly hope UP will put up a fight. It would be neat to see Santa Ana St. declared a historical landmark, but I doubt that will happen. I don't see how all those industries would continue to be served if they closed the street trackage, unless BNSF took over the remaining customers and you know UP would never allow that. I suppose they could operate via trackage rights over BNSF all the way from Los Nietos, but you know BNSF would not make it easy for UP to have that, especially with the congestion already existing on their line. I'm sure UP is aware of Anaheim's plans and hopefully will fight them. There are certainly ways to have an "upscale" street and still have trains run down the middle. Think Jack London Square.
