Generally the dispatcher will not line up movements or allow track and time without coordinating with the run through first. Other OperationsThe BNSF has three drawbridges on the Fallbridge sub from MP 5.1 to MP 9.6. All trains must contact the Willamette River and Columbia River drawbridges on the east and west approaches. The Columbia Slough drawbridge is not always manned and is rarely opened. Many times though dispatcher decisions are made based on openings made by the drawbridge operators.
The UP has a drawbridge on the Portland Sub (Graham Line) between East Portland and Portland. All trains must contact the Steel Bridge operator to confirm the bridge is down and locked. AmtrakAmtrak has three train services that serve Portland and Vancouver. These trains are Cascades, Empire Builder, and Coast Starlight. See Amtrak for schedule information.
