We had not been sitting long in the drawing room before Mr March was arranging a timetable for the next day.
The Conscience of the Rich By C. P. Snow

What troubles me is "was arranging" here. I can't catch the idea. Started arranging, arranged would be suitable here. But continuous seems inappropriate.
Could you comment?
