Yeah, dispatch 23, the bridge, the only bridge that'll get you across here coming from the Independence side is closed. We won't be able to make it back there. Copy that. We're on the phone now trying to see if we can get them to start moving a little sooner than they planned. 23, this is 24. The train has started moving, looks like, over here. Alright, copy. We got a long way back. We backtracked several miles into Independence to try to get there. We'll return. 14, copy.

They have not given us an indication if they're going to get it moving yet. Trying to find an alternative. This is 24s. Yeah, that was our only way in. And our closest hydrant's sitting on the other side of those railroad tracks. We're going to try to refill up, and that train started coming. So that's why I requested another pumper, but I think that's the only one, only way in. Copy that. We're trying to get a hold of the railroad, see if they can get it moving.

And Dispatch Pumper 24. Dispatch Pumper 24. I'm not sure if you heard. 23s has stopped by the train. They're trying to figure out alternative routes. Do you have any suggestions for them? Dispatch 23s, we know how to get there. This is our normal first-in-district you didn't send us on. It's a train blocking all the entrances to get over to Kentucky that's causing the problem. Did you mind contacting the railroad like I asked and see what their plan is? We have 23.
