Weird Outage

One of my sites had a weird T1 outage this afternoon that magically fixed itself. As with many such outages I doubt I will get any real information as to the cause of the problem. The outage occured on a vanilla (non-PRI) long distance T1. When I ran a status on the trunk group it showed all channels as out-of-service. I ran a long test on the trunk here are the result for each channel:

Test 136 - Abort 1020
Test 36 - Abort 1006
Test 6 - Pass
Test 7 - Pass

I busied out and released the trunk. After it went through its test phase (where it looks like it is working, but is just being tested), it went back to the same status.

I opened tickets with my Avaya BP and my LD Carrier. Before either vendor had a chance to do much of anything the circuit came back in service. I doubt I will ever get a good answer on this issue, but I would love to hear what people here think. I am especially interested in what those codes mean. I have searched the various PDFs for details, but they haven't really told me much. If you have any thoughts I would love to hear them.
