Paul,

That raises two more questions: 1) Why would the EL reroute CS-9 via
Morristown (track maintenance, derailments?); and 2) Were there height
restrictions, due to the overhead catenary, that might affect the cars that
could be placed into CS-9?  Not to mention the ruling grade up to Summit
(1.5%?) was a good reason not to have many of these detours.

I know that occasionally a CS-9 would be routed out over the Morris & Essex
(speaking of which - how the heck would they do this? Would the west leg of
the West End wye be used for this manuever?
