First problem is equipment to use.  Second is Crews.  Generally on the East End(Aurora to Chicago) we would just couple two trains together if Possible.  Some times we would send techs to the train(if any around) or a RF man or TM.  Biggest problem was the lack of understanding of the modern electronics in use on the locos.
It raised the stress level of the Dispatcher.  But you had to be able to deal with it

Subject: [CBQ] Train delays and cancelations

 
I live on Long Island and get email updates from the LIRR.

This morning I got these and a bunch of other messages:

The 4:55AM train from Port Jefferson due Hunterspoint Ave at 6:37AM is being delayed at Carle Place [at around 6 am] due to equipment problems. 

[That train was then canceled due to equipment problems at Carle Place.]   Customers will be accommodated by the 6:25 AM from Hicksville due Penn at 7:11 AM, and the 6:19  from Hicksville  due Penn at 6:58 AM. [The passengers could then transfer at Jamaica for trains to Hunterspoint Ave]

[8:18am] A rescue engine is assisting in moving the disabled train at Carle Place. 

My question is... Is it that difficult to get a rescue engine to the scene 15-20 minutes east of Jamaica, a major transfer point on the railroad?  This disabled train caused 15-30 minute delays all across the North Shore branches during rush hour this morning.
