Arrival Time Enforcement
The proposed arrival time local agreement was voted upon and passed at the July 8th meeting. It goes into effect on July 16th. At that time, any conductor who inputs an incorrect arrival time at tie-up will be subject to being placed first out on their respective board. Any conductor who feels that they are in the incorrect position on their assigned board due to another conductor’s incorrect arrival time will need to text Tim Buhrman or Steve Groat within 2-3 hours upon the offender’s tie-up. The text of the agreement is attached below and includes reminders on where and when to arrive at Boone.
