Is the Hinkle hump and/or shop open again?

They are pinning cars to the tune of about 900 a day. They just spent 1.6 million on the yard. Shop is open doing all the work and more in some instances of what was there. The biggest difference is people actually work now instead of walking around carrying a hammer or sleeping…
Shop is fully opened again. Doing Wheel True, Drop Pit and Main Gen changeouts. On top of all that they are doing other heavy repairs, everything from power assemblies to radiators and everything in between. They are the only shop in the PNW capable of doing that kind of work. Only thing that’s different is they only have a 1/4 at best of the manpower. Lots of guys didn’t come back post 2019.
Haha, yeah laser focused on shareholder returns, wealthy activist hedge funds, ESG, and everything else that has nothing to do with being focused on employee and community safety and customer service. Laser focused boys and girls.
Why open it back up when we are laser focused and winning all the way around .
Hinkle shop is kinda open. Not
Many people or tools but there is some activity.
Hinkle supposedly is going to a sorta hump yard, just like Pine Bluff does. Where they only need half the employees a real hump yard would need. You know, More with Less! It's How We Win.
