I have been there in an occasion where a double header was required at the last minute. The road engine had already coupled up. About the same time, she pulled the train forward and switched a couple more cars into the mix. While this was happening, another engine was made ready in somewhat record time (probably 30 minutes start to finish).

This railroad is full of surprises, both on and off the train. Hats off to all involved!!
