UP 2686 and UP 8084 did not get very far west of North Yard with DRGW AX-41 (a Jordan Spread) in tow. The spreader tripped the high/wide detector at MP 8.5. As a result, the crew stopped the train here on the main, just east of 66th Avenue. They are waiting for a carman to come out of North Yard and secure the wings on the spreader and ensure it can clear all the tunnels on the trip west.
