Sounds like the Union Pacific for the first 6 months after the S.P. takeover. Their sidings were full of trains to the point of almost shutting down the entire railroad. When they put a train on a siding to wait for space at the destination, they left the locos idling because they are so hard to start from cold. Unfortunately they took so long to long to get space cleared for the trains, that crews would be sent out to pick up the trains and find the locomotives had run out of fuel and shut down!
