operation is TWC. This main track consists of the Pole Yard
Lead, the West Leg of the Wye and the portion of the West
Pass between the West Leg of the Wye and the Newport Main
(Old GN Main). All other tracks in the Boyer Yard and North
Sandpoint are considered other than main track. The track
from former BNSF MP 1402.5 to MP 1408.1 remains main

North Sandpoint—To minimize the time public road crossings
are blocked, crews must contact the BNSF Boyer East

UP/BNSF diamond will be delayed prior to departing Division
Avenue. When the Pole Yard Lead distant signal is less than
clear, eastward movements must be stopped prior to Division
Avenue Crossing.
