An eastbound Amtrak special, carrying an Amtrak Cascades AIRO trainset, sits stopped at a red signal on the main at Rocky. The train is waiting on a westbound UP MNYGJ, which is going quite a bit slower than the dispatcher would have liked. The dispatcher was hoping the manifest would have been in the siding waiting for the special by the time the special arrived.
