I’m confused…… both tracks have 130 empties. All 4 engines on the South end tied to empties. There’s no way to get the CSX engines back up tp Wells currently

D801-31 with the 4 engines & 130 empty cars went westward into Grand Junction siding at mp CG54. He'll leave that empty coal train parked inside Grand Junction, cut away the 2 CSX engines & those 2 engines will head eastward into Wells siding at mp CG43.3 & couple up to the parked coal train there & move him out. The parked train inside Wells has 2 BNSF engines on the head end & the 2 CSXT engines will be the rear DPU's.

Well, that was a bit confusing based on what I had heard the Dispatcher saying earlier. Ends up being, D801 brought the empty coal train to Grand Jct & left it on the main track, then took the CSXT engines into the west end of Grand Jct mp CG55.6 to DP the loaded coal train that was tied down inside there. D801 was earlier told it was a coal train that was tied down inside Wells Siding that he was to DP.
