Because this is what they are going to go back to "9.02(b) THEY MUST TAKE EVERY PRECAUTION FOR THE SAFETY OF THEIR TRAINS AND CUSTOMERS. WHEN A TRAIN IS IN MOTION THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR SAFE RUNNING RESTS ENTIRELY UPON THE TRAIN OPERATOR." Its a Lose Lose for us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He mentioned that he would ALWAYS approach timers at less than half the speed they could be safely crossed at. And he is correct! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we'll get "Super Fastracks" where they shut down a line for a week or more to get this done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He cant change a rule even if he paid someone.. Now he can be part of a Bulletin, that is another matter which Superseded the Rule... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
