robertr - Part4 of 6
Work Order: NEDF 109
F014
Time: 11:45 am
Season: Summer
Weather: Rain
Duration: 1h 06m
Train: GP38
Class: 3
-------------------------------------------------
NOTES: - It's raining
again, so don't forget to sand if needed. Since
there has been a derailment on the ADF and the
traffic is hopping, there is a request from Dispatch
to take the Hoppers from the Interchange siding to
BWF Mining to help get traffic moving by using the
Baers Siding as a passing track.
-------------------------------------------------
First, move the consist
behind you forward towards the East end of the base
of the wye, then go back and get the hoppers
blocking the siding and head for the mine. All
switches will be set for you. Keep your speed to 15
mile an hour in the siding, since this is classified
as a 'holding yard'.
You will be backing all
the way to the mine from the main, but they are
unloaded, so just take it easy. You will be told
where to drop them, but be sure and clear all the
reverse points.
You will probably have
to wait for AI on the final lap, right before the
single track leading to the wye, but it should be a
short minute or two at the most.
Once again:
Speed limits are:
15 yard
30 Sidings
45 Main unless
otherwise posted
30 on 10degree or
sharper switches
They are rigidy
enforced so be careful
Note: Do not over-run
the first reverse point by very far or you will also
clear a second one there, which will lock you out on
the return trip, necessitating restarting the
complete activity 5 minutes from the finish.
