Going in the hole again for another westbound empty coal train
Title:  Going in the hole again for another westbound empty coal train
Description:  BB 7 waited out the next train for 2 hours. That's insane, they could've finished their switching and been in Gordonsville before the next train got here. Blocks sure aren't efficent.
