Thirty-two, four, and C three, or anybody else other than four that is in Columbus.
00:08
I have got a piece of equipment that is coming northbound across the Yellowstone River Bridge in about 5 min .
00:15
If we can get some traffic control in that area.
00:22
Dispatch five, I'm on the ground.
00:24
I guess it may need help.
00:28
Five, that would be great.
00:30
Okay.
00:32
This is C3, I'll go off and help you.
00:37
Hi, copy. I will put three and five on your station.
00:40
02:11
325, speak 1st .
02:14
Go ahead.
02:17
Are you up on 78 yet?
02:19
Oh no, I'm stuck at a traffic.
02:21
That hasn't even come through yet.
02:26
Copy. It looks like they're running equipment back and forth.
02:29
A lot of traffic stopping right in front of the rail, and it'll start down like that again.
02:41
Damn.
03:10
This is that five.
03:12
Five five.
03:15
You call the RP back and let them know we're trying to get to them, but there's some malfunction going on with the railroad track crossing.
03:27
RP is 322. He's not the one actually moving the equipment.
03:32
C3 might just have to block southbound traffic,
03:36
maybe up by ICH or before ICH.
03:38
Northbound will know that they've got equipment in front of them.
03:46
Will you call MRL? We have traffic blocked up both lanes on Pike Ave at this rail.
03:55
We just keep coming down, up and down on it, inexplicably.
04:01
I certainly will.
04:25
And where they have, we got a cross now.
04:34
This is that five.
04:38
Five five.
04:39
Where are they at? We got a crowd of them now.
04:45
I'm not sure.
04:46
I don't have contact with the equipment.
04:50
Yep.
04:55
I'll three. I'll run across the bridge.
04:57
I guess you want to stay on the north side.
05:00
Copy that.
05:01
05:49
C3, will you shut that southbound traffic?
05:53
Copy.
05:55
AM of the, you know when you got it, I got him right here.
05:59
Copy, got one car coming across the bridge now.
