NEDF 109 X01a MS_SS work order

NEDF 109 X01a MS_SS - Part2, Marshall - Saratoga Yard, via Bogville

----------------------------------------

Work Order: NEDF 109 X01a MS_SS

Time: 10:30 a.m.

Season: Spring

Weather: Clear

Duration: 1 hr 56 min

Train: SD70M

Class: 4

----------------------------------------

Still a beauiful spring morning to continue our run. They're turning the GP's back to Maggies, and we're taking on a pair SD70M's to get to Saratoga. Not the best in the yards, but it's just basically assembling the train before heading out and they are needed with the grades and load we're moving. I guess since you've finished your coffee, it's time to head out.

We are responsible for our own switches in the yard.

We begin by going straight forward then backing up onto Outgoing 2

Pickup 32768-0-5, then forward and back to Outgoing 3

Pickup 32772-0-28

and 32773. They are moving the cubby to the Western Division

Use the yardview (7 key) to find the cars if needed.

Move to yard lead and wait for clearance to enter the main and then dispatcher has control of all switches..

Setout #32768-0 & 1 at Cedar Ridge runaround track

Setout #32768-3,4,5 at BV Poultry

Warnings: Speeding is not tolerated on the ADF or M&RM, so beware!

Main: As Posted (Best to keep 3 - 5mph under)

Sidings: 30mph

Yards: 15mph

All crossovers, diverging switches (points) tighter than 5 degrees have a 30mph speed limit. All of those West of here are limited with no warning unless otherwise notified. However, the conductor should let you know when the end of the train has cleared.

Note: the pickups and setouts may not show up as completed until the Evaluation, however you should get notification after each successfull task except Cedar Ridge.

Since we are a very low priority, there are 3 AI meets where you will most likely have to wait .. depending on your speed. There should not be a wait more than about 4 minutes at most or something is wrong. Also, try not to get stopped going into Cedar Ridge or you will more than likely stall out. It can be timed if you're patient

If you get any unsuccessful end of activity seemingly out of nowhere, look at the detailed evaluation and it will tell you why. Usually Overspeed!
