Narrative:

Cleared into position and hold on runway 12R from A-10 at XA05. After nosewheel had crossed the hold short line, tower instructed us to hold short of runway 12R. I stopped the aircraft immediately, however, we were southwest of the runway 12R hold short line, but clear of the runway 12R threshold. We immediately informed tower on 126.7 we had crossed the runway 12R hold short line. Tower asked us to verify we were clear of the runway 12R threshold. We did and we were. Msp tower 126.7 landed a company DC9 and B727 with our aircraft positioned beyond the runway 12R hold short line. We were then cleared for departure at XA11Z.
