Move to original recording position

Question

Imported 7 tracks from a live 1,5h recording of a concert. This was recorded using Tracktion using 8 mics into eight tracks. I've tried to get into Logic before and gave up. More than once... Since I've decided to once again try to become a friend of Logic for recording, mixing and editing acoustic music I have decided to do the audio editing/mixing in Logic. Import went well. I began to remove unused parts from various tracks and accidentally moved a region along the timeline. No problem - "Move to original recording position", but this command has no effect. Nothing happens. All files are BWAV files 1,5h long. I expect the region I ask to "Move to original recording position" to do just that. What's wrong?

No, I've trimmed the regions. They no longer start at 00, they are no longer of equal length. I've slpit regions during pauses throughout the recording and the accidentally moved regions where more than 45 min into the recording. So I'd need to set the start of each region relative to its original position in the recording = the original region.
You understand that regions are really only pointers to the original wave file. If you chop a region into pieces and move the new regions around you are only editing a set of instructions on how to play the wave file... unless you choose to make the regions actual wave files.
The main purpose of BWAV files to place the imported waves at the correct start time, regions are a completely different animal.
If you accidentally move a region, immediately use UNDO and the region will move back.
