The Delay is caused by a MOW curfew on the main near Paola, KS due to a derailment on Oct 16

Yes correct.  Coffeyville V B & T was one of several brick companies there.   A short bit of research suggests that they quit operations in the 30's.  The Coffeyville, KS city website states that when all of the brick companies were in operation at capacity they could make 765,500 bricks per day.  I didn't know that UP used those bricks but have seen them in many a ATSF paved platform.
