Hey man, on the west end of 7 track, about 25 cars deep, somebody left a derail up and it will derail a train. Right, you said a west end of 7 Trek? Yes, sir. It looks like a maintenance away derail, like wanting you to bolt onto the rail, but it is designed to derail. 20, 25 cars deep. Okay, understand. I'll turn that in. West End a 7 track. 25 cars deep. Maintenance away. It seemed like it's a maintenance away derail out there. That's what it looks like. I didn't see anything about bad track. I just don't want anybody to shove in here and go on the ground. All right, I understand. I'll get this turned in. I'm all right. Thank you, sir. And we're putting ours together, the EMPLPK. Got to get a Fred to an air test, then I'll be calling it. All right, understand, sir. Thank you. BNSFDS4 up. 8259-0. That track is out of service, the west 1,000 feet over. I couldn't hear you.
