    Others refer to 'crossing loops' as 'passing lanes'
    4,000 locos stored is a hell of a lot.

    Norfolk Southern has about 400 locomotives stored for various reasons at any given time, whilst UP has 1400 stored (maybe 10/20% of fleet stored for UP and NS?)

    Also there are technical reasons that define a passing lane vs a loop.
