There are only two tracks crossing the river at Canal Street. That bridge will become a bottleneck if you have to deadhead every single BNSF train across it during rush hours, sending them to a new yard at 35th St while inbound SWS and HC trains are trying to get into the station. Not to mention the St Louis trains that also use that bridge.
