Operations sputtered to a restart last night. The strike is settled with management conceding to none of the demands of labor. Trains ran with freight deliveries and track inspection. Several incidents were recorded:

1) An unexplained uncoupling occured in the upper tunnel. While attempting to push the cars involved, the cars were derailed. Plans are to dispatch the crane this evening.

2) Problems continue in the lower tunnel with the Santa Fe F3 bogging down.

3) Construction of the yard spur needs to continue.

4) The engineers are considering options for the upper loop extension.
