Robert Bosco Posted February 21, 2008 Share #1 Posted February 21, 2008 When you are at a terminal, before the train pulls out, the conductor preforms a pa check, then asks if the operator "has the lineup." What exactly is the lineup? (Qx) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTOMan Posted February 21, 2008 Share #2 Posted February 21, 2008 When you are at a terminal, before the train pulls out, the conductor preforms a pa check, then asks if the operator "has the lineup." What exactly is the lineup? (Qx) A "Line-Up" is any clear signal (Yellow or Green for Automatics or Green Over Green, Or Yellow over Green or Green Over Yellow or Yellow over Yellow for Homesignals) and switches in your favor.. A Red Automatic Signal or a Red Over Red Homesignal is NOT Proper Line-up and you have to wait for it to go to Yellow or Green.. When you are leaving a terminal a C/R must ask you if you have it.

Eastman346 Posted February 21, 2008 Share #3 Posted February 21, 2008 When you are leaving a terminal a C/R must ask you if you have it. Would you mind explaining a little about this sentence and why the C/R has to ask you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
error46146 Posted February 21, 2008 Share #4 Posted February 21, 2008 Do you have the Line Up ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelham Bay Dave Posted February 21, 2008 Share #5 Posted February 21, 2008 The C/R has to ask the T/O if they have the line up because Kevin O'Connell made it a bulletin after a rash of Home Signal overruns at the terminal. Sometimes T/O's get the two buzzers and indication an think its off to the races but T/O forgets to look at the Line Up then CHOW! My own opinion its the second stupidest Bulletin C/R's have to follow the first being Pointing at the C/R's board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PATCOman Posted February 23, 2008 Share #9 Posted February 23, 2008 The C/R MUST point at the zebra stripe board at the C/R position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

error46146 Posted February 24, 2008 Share #11 Posted February 24, 2008 its funny how they do that, you see the train coming in the station, and then they pop out and point at the board before they do anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INDman Posted February 24, 2008 Share #12 Posted February 24, 2008 Well they have to point at the board before they can even open up, it is to make sure the train is platformed so no one falls into the tunnel or on to the cat walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOB2RTO Posted February 24, 2008 Share #13 Posted February 24, 2008 Well they have to point at the board before they can even open up, it is to make sure the train is platformed so no one falls into the tunnel or on to the cat walk. I would laugh my ass off at any adult or teen who falls into the tunnel or catwalk after exiting the train. The reason why is it's proof that person is an idiot for not looking before stepping off. No sane teen or adult should step in doggie doo. They still do cause they are to busy looking everywhere else, but where they walk. I scan the ground when I walk. On the train you should look before you step off. Technology has dummin' society. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather watch them do something to injure or make an ass of themselves. It's good entertainment. I cater to them 5 days a week. There are always several.......
