Fred Stuckmann	General	The train was probably doubled together this way.	4/4/2017 10:25:18 PM

Tom Beckett	General	My guess is it was a bad order car somewhere, and this was the next train going toward its destination. I've occasionally seen stack sets, or the odd coal car, set out in places you would not expect them. I figure it has to be a bad order car. The other, but more remote possibility, is that this was an especially hot set of boxes, and the train they are on was the next one going to their destination, though I think that's extremely unlikely. As for getting the stuff, you'd be surprised how low priority some intermodal traffic is. Common knowledge is that if it's COFC, it must be hot. Not always so. Sometimes it goes that way(on a roundabout route) because the rate is low. Ocean traffic has pretty long transits as a rule, so a couple days delay may not raise any eyebrows.	4/5/2017 1:12:20 AM

Now it is on it's way to join the others. I hope you're not waiting for something important on it. The car is new to rrpa.
