No 14 delay between Oakland Jack London and Emeryville?

Dixieland's status map shows 54 minutes late at Emeryville after about on time a Jack London.
Does anyone know the story?

There are two basic delays that happen between OKJ & EMY-  a visit to the Oakland Yard for any one of hundreds of reasons, or (less often, but still too often) a car on the tracks.  There is a bit of street running and it's amazing how many motorists end up straddling the rail beyond the end of pavement!  It's just shy of common.

And can happen anytime of day... Never fails that I'm delayed on a NB Starlight getting off at EMY late at night.... I've had the stretch take an hour just inching thru the yard....

There is a tie replacement gang working between mile post 4 and 15.25 on the Martinez sub from 9pm till 4:30am causing single tracking between those points which is causing some of the delays. There currently working on track one working there way east.

This particular train <14(18)> went through the yard due to toilet system problems in the business class car.
