SECTION: C
AMENDED:
SUBJECT: OPERATION REDBLOCK
OPERATION REDBLOCK IS AN EMPLOYEE-RUN SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION AND

INTERVENTION PROGRAM. THE PROGRAM EMPHASIZES AWARENESS, EDUCATION AND
PREVENTION OF DRUG AND ALCOHOL USE THROUGH PEER PARTICIPATION. IT IS
ABOUT GETTING PEOPLE HELP, NOT GETTING PEOPLE FIRED. CONFIDENTIALITY
IS CRITICAL, AND GUARANTEED. PARTICIPANTS REMAIN ANONYMOUS AND
EMPLOYEES GET THE HELP THAT THEY NEED. PROCEDURES (MODIFY UNION
PACIFIC DRUG AND ALCOHOL POLICY 6.4) THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURES ARE
APPROVED BY YOUR UNION AND SUPPORTED BY UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD:
1. IF AN EMPLOYEE IS UNABLE TO REPORT FOR WORK OR UNABLE TO CONTINUE
AT WORK AFTER REPORTING BECAUSE OF THE USE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL,
HE/SHE SHOULD CALL THE OPERATION REDBLOCK TOLL-FREE NUMBER AND MARK
OFF "OPERATION REDBLOCK." DO NOT USE ANY OTHER REASON TO MARK OFF.
NO DISCIPLINARY ACTION WILL RESULT FROM A LAYOFF FOR OPERATION
REDBLOCK.
2. IF YOU ARE ON DUTY OR GOING ON DUTY AND DISCOVER THAT YOUR
CO-WORKER HAS BEEN USING ALCOHOL OR DRUGS IMMEDIATELY STOP WHAT YOU
ARE DOING AND TELL YOUR CO-WORKER THAT YOU CANNOT WORK WITH
HIM/HER, AND THAT HE/SHE MUST MARK OFF OPERATION REDBLOCK. A CALL
MUST BE MADE TO THE OPERATION REDBLOCK TOLL-FREE NUMBER AND THE
EMPLOYEE WILL BE MARKED OFF. THE FIRST PRIORITY IS THE SAFETY OF
THE EMPLOYEE AND HIS/HER COWORKERS. NO DISCIPLINE WILL BE
ADMINISTERED, AND NO RECORDS WILL BE KEPT.
3. SHOULD THE EMPLOYEE BE UNCOOPERATIVE, THE CO-WORKER MAY REQUEST THE
ASSISTANCE OF A SUPERVISOR (ITEM 19, CO-WORKER REPORT, OF THE UNION
PACIFIC DRUG AND ALCOHOL POLICY). THE SUPERVISOR WILL ASSIST IN
REMOVING THE EMPLOYEE TO A SAFE LOCATION. EMPLOYEES WHO ARE
ELIGIBLE FOR A CO-WORKER REFERRAL WILL NOT BE CHARGED WITH
DISCIPLINE PROVIDED THE EMPLOYEE CONTACTS THE EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE
PROGRAM COUNSELOR WITHIN THREE DAYS AND SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETES THE
PRESCRIBED PROGRAM, IF ANY.(AN EMPLOYEE MAY UTILIZE A CO-WORKER
REFERRAL NOT MORE THAN ONCE IN A TEN-YEAR PERIOD).
4. EMPLOYEES WHO MARK OFF FOR OPERATION REDBLOCK WILL BE CONTACTED BY
A PEER MEMBER OF THE OPERATION REDBLOCK GROUP FOR A CONFIDENTIAL
FOLLOW-UP. TE&Y TOLL FREE OPERATION REDBLOCK MARK OFF NUMBER: 1-

THE FIRST AND SECOND INVESTIGATIONS.
5.A "FIRST OFFENSE" VIOLATION OF THIS POLICY WILL REMAIN ON THE
EMPLOYEE'S RECORD FOR THIRTY-SIX MONTHS OF ACTIVE SERVICE

FURTHER VIOLATION OF THIS POLICY OCCURS DURING THIS TIME, THE
EMPLOYEE'S ATTENDANCE RECORD WILL BE CONSIDERED CLEAR.
6.A VIOLATION DURING THE THIRTY-SIX MONTHS OF ACTIVE SERVICE
FOLLOWING A "FIRST OFFENSE" WILL RESULT IN A "SECOND OFFENSE"

ACTIVE SERVICE WILL BEGIN, STARTING WITH THE DATE OF THE SECOND
NOTICE OF DISCIPLINE. IF NO FURTHER VIOLATION OF THIS POLICY
OCCURS DURING THIS TIME, THE EMPLOYEE'S ATTENDANCE RECORD WILL

THESE SCREENS HAVE NO EFFECT ON PAY.
THE COMPLETION OF THESE SCREENS CREATES AN OFFICIAL HOURS OF SERVICE

CHANGE THE PTO IF NECESSARY TO REFLECT ACTUAL REST AND ENTER
ACTUAL "RESTED" ON-DUTY TIME INSTEAD OF CMS GENERATED START
TIME.
D) CHECK FOR ACCURACY BEFORE CERTIFYING ENTRIES AS CORRECT.
AFTER MAKING REQUIRED ENTRIES CHECK THE TTOD (TOTAL TIME ON
DUTY)FIELD ON THE CERTIFICATION PAGE BEFORE ENTERING A "Y" TO
CERTIFY AS CORRECT. IF TTOD INDICATES GREATER THAN 12 HOURS,
AND THIS IS NOT CORRECT, ENTER AN "N". THE SYSTEM WILL RETURN
TO THE ENTRY SCREENS FOR ANY NECESSARY CORRECTIONS.
E) IF AN ERROR IS MADE, AND UNINTENTIONALLY CERTIFIED AS CORRECT,
EXPLAIN FULLY IN THE COMMENTS FIELD.
F) IF AN ACTUAL VIOLATION HAS OCCURRED EXPLAIN THE CIRCUMSTANCES
FULLY IN THE COMMENTS FIELD, INCLUDING THE NAME OF THE RESPONSIBLE
PARTY IF THE VIOLATION WAS AT THEIR INSTRUCTION.
G) HOURS OF SERVICE REPORTING MUST BE KEPT CURRENT. IF UNABLE TO
COMPLETE AN HOURS OF SERVICE TIE-UP FOR ANY REASON, SUCH AS
EXCEEDING HOURS OF SERVICE OR COMPUTER OUTAGE, THE REPORTING SHOULD
BE COMPLETED DURING THE NEXT TOUR OF DUTY USING CMTS OPTION 2,

The following summarizes six key revisions that may affect TE&Y
employees:
1. Maximum of 276 on duty hours per month.
2. All service at the carrier's behest will require an employee

to be placed on duty and to Tieup.
3. Mandatory Minimum 10 hours UDR. All TE&Y employees engaged in

pool, local, yard or other service are required to take a
minimum of 10 hours of undisturbed rest upon tie-up.
4. Additional rest if on duty for more than 12 hours. TE&Y

employees will receive additional mandatory undisturbed rest
for any on-duty time that exceeds 12 hours on a minute-by-
minute basis.
5. 6 on 2 off. TE&Y employees initiating an on-duty WORKING TRIP

for six consecutive days will be placed in unavailable status
for 48 hours following the on-duty period on the sixth day. If
the employee tie-up occurs at an away-from-home-terminal, the
employee may initiate a seventh day/start and work back to the
home terminal. The employee will be placed in unavailable
status for 72 hours upon tie-up.
6. Maximum of 40 hours of limbo time per calendar month. This cap

reduces to 30 hours per month on Oct. 16, 2009.

SECTION: A
AMENDED:
SUBJECT: LOCOMOTIVE
Cab Supplies - Any crews being transported to a train online are

required to bring ice and drinking water from their respective on-duty
location.
Cab Air Conditioning - The following applies between May 1 and

October 1. When possible, trains will have a functioning
air-conditioned locomotive cab in the lead position when there is a
functioning air-conditioned unit in the locomotive consist. Crews on
through trains with functioning air conditioned unit in the consist,
but not in the lead position, or when air conditioner on the
controlling unit fails enroute, may switch an air conditioned unit to
the lead position if there are no other operational considerations
such as ACS or DPU equipment requirements. Prior to making such a turn
on the units, the crew must contact the train dispatcher and arrange
for an appropriate location that will have the least impact on overall
train velocity. If a unit with functioning air conditioner is not
available in the locomotive consist, the train will proceed.
THE CAB SIGNAL SYSTEM IS OFTEN TIMES CUT IN AND TESTED AT LOCATIONS
WELL IN ADVANCE OF ACS TERRITORY. IT IS THEN PLACED IN PARTIAL CUTOUT
POSITION TO EXTINGUISH THE LIGHT DISPLAY. HOWEVER, THE DEVICE IS STILL
OPERATIVE, AND WILL RESPOND IF IT RECEIVES A SIGNAL. IN NON-ACS
TERRITORY, THIS INADVERTENT SIGNAL IS REFERRED TO AS A "HIT," AND WILL
CAUSE A PENALTY BRAKE APPLICATION IF NOT REACTED TO PROMPTLY. CREWS
MUST REPORT LOCATIONS CAUSING CAB SIGNAL HITS TO THE TRAIN DISPATCHER,
SO THEY CAN BE CORRECTED. IN NON-ACS TERRITORY, WHEN A TRAIN
EXPERIENCES A CAB SIGNAL HIT, DO THE FOLLOWING TO PREVENT AN
UNINTENTIONAL PENALTY BRAKE APPLICATION:
1. IF THE ACKNOWLEDGING LEVER IS IN THE "PARTIAL CUTOUT" POSITION
(C/O), MOVE THE ACKNOWLEDGING LEVER TO THE "NORMAL" POSITION (NOR)
AND LEAVE IT THERE FOR 1 SECOND.
* ON NORTH AMERICAN CAB LOCOMOTIVES EQUIPPED WITH THE ACKNOWLEDGING
PLUNGER, IF THE ACKNOWLEDGING PLUNGER IS IN THE "PARTIAL CUTOUT"
POSITION (RAISED), PUSH THE PLUNGER BUTTON ONCE TO CUT IN THE CAB
SIGNALS.
2. MOVE THE ACKNOWLEDGING LEVER FROM THE "NORMAL" POSITION TO THE
"ACKNOWLEDGE" POSITION (ACK), HOLD IT THERE FOR 1 SECOND, AND
RELEASE IT BACK TO THE "NORMAL" POSITION.
* ON NORTH AMERICAN CAB LOCOMOTIVES EQUIPPED WITH THE ACKNOWLEDGING
PLUNGER, PUSH THE PLUNGER A SECOND TIME TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE CAB
SIGNAL.
3. IF IN NON-CAB SIGNAL TERRITORY, MOVE THE ACKNOWLEDGING LEVER
TO THE "PARTIAL CUTOUT" POSITION TO TURN OFF THE CAB SIGNAL
LIGHT.
* ON NORTH AMERICAN CAB LOCOMOTIVES EQUIPPED WITH THE
ACKNOWLEDGING PLUNGER, LIFT THE PLUNGER TO PLACE THE SYSTEM IN
"PARTIAL CUTOUT".
4. IF A PENALTY BRAKE APPLICATION OCCURS BEFORE THE CAB SIGNAL IS
RESET, RECOVER FROM THE PENALTY BRAKE APPLICATION AS DESCRIBED IN
RULE 33.9 (PENALTY BRAKE APPLICATION).

TURBINE GENERATOR THAT OPERATES OVER A PRESSURE RANGE OF ABOUT 50 TO
125 PSI. IT WILL OPERATE IN THE SAME ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS AS A
STANDARD EOT. AIR MUST BE APPLIED TO THE EOT FOR STARTUP. WHEN AIR IS
PRESENT ON THE EOT, THE ALTERNATOR SUPPLIES ELECTRICAL POWER AND
CHARGES THE BACK-UP BATTERY. ARMING AND PRE-DEPARTURE PROCEDURES WILL
BE IDENTICAL TO PRESENT BATTERY POWERED EOT OPERATIONS. HOWEVER, THE
READ OUT INFORMATION IS DIFFERENT THAN THE EXISTING EQUIPMENT. THE
TRAINLINK.ATX WILL SCROLL THROUGH THE FOLLOWING DISPLAYS ON EACH
BUTTON PRESS.
"WRE" WABTEC RAILWAY ELECTRONICS
"AIR POWERED"
"VXX" WHERE XX IS THE EOT SOFTWARE VERSION
"GXX" WHERE XX IS THE AIR GENERATOR VOLTAGE
(TRANSMITTED IN THE CHARGE UNIT FIELD)
"VXXX" WHERE XXX IS THE BATTERY VOLTAGE X10
(V123 = 12.3VDC)
"PXX" WHERE XX IS THE BRAKE PIPE PRESSURE
BATTERY BACKUP
WHEN AIR IS REMOVED FROM THE TRAINLINK.ATX, A BACK UP BATTERY
POWERS THE EOT FOR FOUR (4) HOURS. IF AFTER 3 HRS. AND 55 MIN. AIR HAS
NOT BEEN RE-APPLIED TO THE EOT, THE EOT WILL TRANSMIT A "NO AIR"
MESSAGE FOR FIVE (5) MINUTES, THEN THE EOT WILL SHUT DOWN. WHEN AIR IS
RE-APPLIED, THE EOT WILL WAKE UP AUTOMATICALLY AND BEGIN TO
"TRICKLE-CHARGE" THE BACK UP BATTERY. HOWEVER, WHEN THE AIR PRESSURE
ON THE EOT IS LESS THAN 50 PSI, THE AIR GENERATOR WILL SUPPLY
SUFFICIENT POWER TO OPERATE THE EOT, BUT WILL NOT CHARGE THE BACK UP
BATTERY. THE TRAINLINK.ATX WILL FUNCTION NORMALLY EVEN IF THE BACK-UP
BATTERY IS DEAD. IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY BRAKE APPLICATION, WHICH
WOULD REMOVE THE AIR SOURCE, THE ENERGY STORED IN THE AIR TURBINE'S
FLYWHEEL WILL BE SUFFICIENT TO COMPLETE THE EMERGENCY COMMAND AT THE
EOT. WHILE OPERATING ON THE BATTERY THE TRAINLINK.ATX WILL TRANSMIT
THE MESSAGE "REPLBAT" (REPLACE BATTERY) TO THE LCU WHEN THE VOLTAGE
DROPS BELOW 10.5V. IF AIR IS APPLIED, THE VOLTAGE WILL CLIMB ABOVE
11.0V AND THE EOT WILL SEND A "CLEAR" MESSAGE. ADDITIONALLY, NO
"DEADBAT" (DEAD BATTERY) ALARM WILL BE SENT. HOWEVER, IF THE VOLTAGE
CONTINUES TO DROP TO BELOW 9 VOLTS THE SYSTEM WILL SHUT DOWN AFTER A
DELAY OF 4 MINUTES. THIS PREVENTS DEEP-DISCHARGE OF THE BATTERY. TILT
SHUTDOWN AS IN STANDARD EOTS, THE TRAINLINK.ATX SHUTS DOWN ON THE
TILT-TO-HORIZONTAL. HOWEVER, IT MUST REMAIN TILTED FOR A PERIOD OF
APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES TO COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN THE BATTERY MICRO
CONTROLLER. WHEN THE UNIT IS RESTORED TO THE UPRIGHT POSITION, AND AIR
IS APPLIED, THE EOT WILL AUTOMATICALLY WAKE UP. LCU DATA DISPLAYS
MESSAGES DISPLAYED ON THE LCU WILL BE THE SAME EXCEPT THAT THE
FOLLOWING DISPLAYS WILL HAVE A SPECIFIC MEANING WHEN OPERATED WITH THE
TRAINLINK.ATX "CU" (CHARGE UNITS)DISPLAYS THE GENERATOR VOLTAGE IN 1
VOLT INCREMENTS "NO AIR" INDICATES THAT AIR HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE
TRAINLINK.ATX FOR 3 HOURS AND 55 MINUTES. EOT WILL SHUT DOWN AT 4
HOURS. "REPLBAT" INDICATES THAT THE BATTERY VOLTAGE HAS DROPPED BELOW
10.5 VOLTS. AIR SHOULD BE REAPPLIED TO THE UNIT TO TRICKLE-CHARGE THE
BATTERY. THEORY OF OPERATION AIR FILTER/NOZZLE ASSEMBLY AIR FROM THE
BRAKE PIPE SERVES AS THE SUPPLY FOR THE TRAINLINK.ATXAIR TURBINE. AIR
PASSES THROUGH A FILTER ASSEMBLY AND THEN THROUGH A SMALL NOZZLE THAT
DIRECTS THE HIGH VELOCITY AIR ONTO THE TURBINE BLADES. AIRFLOW THROUGH
THE AIR FILTER/NOZZLE ASSEMBLY CAN BE VERIFIED BY APPLYING PRESSURE
TO THE EOT AND OBSERVING THE GENERATOR OUTPUT ON THE EOT'S DISPLAY. AT
80 PSI INPUT, THE GENERATOR OUTPUT SHOULD BE NO LESS THAN 25 VDC (G25
OR HIGHER WILL BE SEEN IN THE EOT DISPLAY). THIS INFORMATION IS ALSO
TRANSMITTED TO THE LCU AND DISPLAYED IN THE CHARGE UNITS FIELD.
TURBINE/ALTERNATOR THE AIR TURBINE CONSUMES LESS THAN 1.3 SCFM AT 80
PSI. AT THIS PRESSURE THE TURBINE SPINS AT 3500 RPM AND PRODUCES AN
OUTPUT OF APPROXIMATELY 25 VDC. SHOWN BELOW IS THE GENERATOR OUTPUT AT
VARIOUS PRESSURE INPUTS:PRESSURE INPUT (PSI) GENERATOR OUTPUT VDC
(MIN.) 50 17 80 25 100 32 (MAX.)
PLACE EOT'S IN PROPER STORAGE FACILITY AS PROVIDED AT EACH YARD.
WHEN DUTIES REQUIRE TO TRANSPORT EOT'S, THEY WILL BE PLACED IN THE
KNUCKLE OF THE TRANSPORTING LOCOMOTIVE OR RAIL CAR.
SECTION: D

SUBJECT: GROUND AIR
Several new locations on the Wichita Service Unit now have hoses
installed at Highway/Rail crossings to facilitate coupling trains that
are to be stored at these locations. Crews are to utilize these hoses
each time the train is stored exceeding 4 hours or the time to be
stored is undetermined. The hoses are located in a box at the
crossing and hoses are trenched under the road crossing so both
portions of the train divided by the crossing will have sufficient air
to expedite the departure of the train without requiring the train to
have a safety or air inspection.
THE LOCATIONS ARE:

McAlester, OK
Adair, OK
Clem, OK
Dunlay, KS
Hecla, KS
Dearing, KS
The following five instructions must be complied with at locations

listed when trains are stored:
1. Comply with all existing rules and instructions.

2. Stop train approximately 700 feet from the end of the siding or
in the clear of the main track.
3. Set enough hand brakes on the portion of the train to be
detached from the engines to be in compliance with 32.1.2 -
Securing an Unattended Train Before Detaching Locomotives.
4. Make the cut on the rear portion of the train at or beyond the
250-foot mark at the crossing and pull the front portion of the
train to or beyond the 250-foot mark on the opposite side of
the crossing. Do not allow unattended cars to be within 250
feet on either side of the crossing.
5. Set enough handbrakes on the portion of the train to be
connected to the engines so that it will hold the remaining
train with all airbrakes released, including engines.
When crews untie the train, they must comply with the following seven
instructions before departing:
1. Comply with all existing rules and instructions

2. Separate the air connections using extreme caution and not
causing the front portion connected to the locomotives to go
into emergency.
3. Secure all air hoses in the designated location. Do not leave
the hoses laying on the ground to be tripping hazards for other
employees.
4. Couple the train back together, stretching the coupling to
insure that the coupling is made properly.
5. Couple the air connections and allow the braking system to
charge sufficiently that the air brakes will hold the train.
6. Set the air brakes sufficiently to hold the train, then release
all hand brakes.
7. Refer to rule 33.6.1(b) Starting, Ascending Grade when starting
on a grade. Loaded DPU trains must use fence and put the DP
unit in power 2 or 3 before releasing the brakes.

SUBJECT: HAZ MAT EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN
Union Pacific Railroad's Hazardous Materials Emergency Response Plan

(HMERP) was developed to guide the actions of employees and others in
the event of a railroad emergency involving hazardous materials.
While the HMERP applies to the entire railroad, certain yards are
required to maintain a hard copy of the plan including site specific
information pertaining to the yard. This site specific information is
important to the safety of our employees and others working in these
yards.
The purpose of this Superintendent's Bulletin is to provide employees

and others with guidance for handling an emergency involving hazardous
materials. The site specific information for the identified yards in
the Wichita Service Unit is provided at the end of this bulletin.
In addition to this information, parallel guidance for actions during

emergencies on the main track and in yards where there is no site
specific information is provided for Transportation employees in the
Instructions for Handling Hazardous Materials (Form 8620) - Section 8.
______________________________________________________________________
* Hazardous Materials Emergency Response Plan Guide *
(Site Specific Information for the Wichita Service Unit)
Overview:
Union Pacific Railroad is a major transporter of hazardous materials.
Our continuous effort to improve safety and security of hazardous
a material is a joint effort of all employees. All employees must do
their part in transporting hazardous materials safely. This includes
protecting yourself, alerting others in the area, and promptly
reporting all releases of hazardous materials.
For more information on the Hazardous Materials Emergency Response
Plan, please contact your supervisor.
______________________________________________________________________
Initial Observer Actions
When employees observe a release of hazardous materials, the following
actions should be taken:
Take action to protect yourself:

o Move upwind and uphill away from the release a reasonable
distance or as specified in the emergency response
Documentation, i.e. Train List, Form 8620, or Emergency
Response Guidebook.
o Warn bystanders to stay away.
o Avoid contact with material and vapors.
o Eliminate any ignition sources (do not smoke, do not use
fusees.)
______________________________________________________________________
Alert others in the affected area:
o Follow emergency radio procedures as identified in Railroad
Rule 2.10 when appropriate.
o Use yard specific notification systems, if available. (See yard
specific information below at the end of this bulletin).
______________________________________________________________________
Make Notifications - DO NOT WAIT TO MAKE NOTIFICATION.
In most cases, all information may not be readily available, so it is
important to immediately make notification and supply any available
information at that time, i.e., name, contact phone number or radio
channel, location and description of incident. Other data can be
supplied as it becomes available.
______________________________________________________________________
When a telephone is available:
1. If IMMEDIATE danger to people, property, or environment, (death,
injury, fire, or other situation requiring immediate assistance), call
911 or local emergency response number and provide the requested
information.
2. Call the Response Management Communication Center (RMCC) at
(888) 877-7267 or company number 8-544-7622 (RMCC) and provide the
requested information. RMCC procedures are to initiate notifications
to local, state, tribal and federal response agencies and others as
appropriate/required.
(Requested information includes name, contact number or number or
radio channel, location and description of incident).
When a telephone is NOT available and communication is:

o Under the control of the train dispatcher, contact the train
dispatcher and provide the requested information. The train
dispatcher will notify RMCC and RMCC will notify local
emergency response agencies.
or
o Not under the control of the train dispatcher, notify the
Yardmaster, local manager of transportation on duty, or local
command center (if one exists for the territory), as
appropriate, and ask them to call RMCC and, if necessary, 911.
Provide the requested information.
______________________________________________________________________
Assist local emergency response agencies from a safe location as
appropriate:
o Provide emergency response agency an extra copy of the Train
List or shipping papers, when available. If an extra copy is
not available, share the copy you have with the emergency
response personnel.

SAFETY STOP REQUIRED BEFORE MAKING COUPLINGS IN YARDS AND INDUSTRIES.

IN AN EFFORT TO ELIMINATE BYPASS DRAWBAR DERAILMENTS AND IN
CONNECTION WITH RULE 81.13, THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS WILL GOVERN:
1. CARS MUST NOT CUT OFF IN A CURVE OR TURNOUT.
2. A SAFETY STOP IS REQUIRED BEFORE COUPLING TO ALL CARS OR ENGINES
IN YARD & INDUSTRY TRACKS.
SAFETY STOP:
STOP MOVEMENT WITHIN 25 - 50 FEET OF THE COUPLING TO DETERMINE
IF DRAWBARS ARE ALIGNED. IF NECESSARY TO ADJUST DRAWBARS,
CARS MUST BE SEPARATED 100 FT. AS REQUIRED BY RULE 81.13.1 AND
81.13.3.
CONDUCT A JOB BRIEFING WITH ENGINEER ABOUT THE COUPLING.
MAKE COUPLINGS AT SPEED NOT MORE THAN 2 MPH.
3. IF NECESSARY TO COUPLE TO A CAR OR ENGINE THAT IS STOPPED IN A
CURVE OR TURN OUT, ADDED PRECAUTIONS MUST TO BE OBSERVED; IN
ADDITION TO A SAFETY STOP, OPEN THE KNUCKLES ON BOTH CARS OR
ENGINES. KEEP SPEED LESS THAN 2 MPH WHILE MAKING COUPLING. IF
COUPLING IS NOT MADE ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT, DETERMINE IF
COUPLING CAN BE MADE SAFELY. SEPARATE THE CARS AS REQUIRED BY
RULE. OPEN BOTH KNUCKLES, READJUST DRAWBARS, ATTEMPT TO MAKE
THE COUPLING ONE MORE TIME.
IF COUPLING CANNOT BE MADE AFTER FOLLOWING THE PROCEDURES

movement to within 25 feet of end of track or spur track,
unless customer requirement allow cars to be closer than 25
feet from end.
5. Train Consist Accuracy Processes Wichita Service Unit:
Parsons Train Consist Accuracy Process
Goal: Achieve and maintain train consist accuracy at a rate of
100%.
To ensure this happens, there are several things that can be
done to minimize the percentages, on switching/pickling errors.
1. Once any train scheduled to setout cars in Parsons has
passed the reader at Paola, a YM or manager must look at
the consist of the train and TE B any cars through or to be
setout here that would be prudent to do. This will ensure
the reader automatically sets out the cars that they intend
to be setout.
2. The outbound crew will print a track list of the cars that
they are to pickup. They will use this list to verify their
pickup as they are pulling the cars out of the track for the
carmen to air test.
3. Any train that the switch crew builds, they are to verify
the consist as they are shoving the cars back into the track
to be set on the train.
If the train they are building is made up of multiple block
switched up to make the train. Then they will pull the
train down the south lead and verify the train consists as
they shove it into the clear.
4. It is recommended that the MPSMU to be built in either 14 or
40 track if at all possible. The would allow the switch
crew to drive the train to verify the consist, once it has
been built.
Once anyone notices an error in their pickup or train,
they are to notify the YM or a manager immediately to
determine the best course of action to remedy the error.
Wichita Terminal Train Consist Accuracy Process

Goal: Achieve and maintain train consist accuracy at a rate of 100%.
1. Yardmaster will prepare switch list(s) for himself and each
crewmember working on the ground.
2. All ground crewmembers will compare the switch list(s)
versus the actual cut of cars on pull back.
3. If the list is good, the crew will notify the yardmaster and
all involved personnel will mark it as GOOD. If a
discrepancy is found, movement will stop and confirmed with
other crewmembers. After job briefing, switch lists will be
clearly marked with the problem and the yardmaster will then
be contacted and told of corrections to be made.
Yardmaster will note the discrepancy on his copy, update the
track in TCS and notify the crew when the update is
completed. Movement will resume at that time.
4. When completed, switch lists will be initialed by the
crewmember that possessed them along with the Job ID and
deposited at the designated location.
5. Yardmasters will initial their copy of the switch lists when
complete and leave a copy in the designated location.
6. When a track is handled (doubled) for a train set,
yardmasters will provide an updated track list to the crew
that last handles a track for them to confirm, versus the
actual cars.
The same process in step 3 above should be followed. When
complete, steps 4 and 5 will be followed with the
yardmaster's copy noting the train symbol being built on his
copy.
7. Before train set, yardmaster will confirm with mechanical
that the power consist is accurate and complete and must
update the =tu function, if necessary.
8. Operating manager will analyze train consist accuracy daily.
If an exception occurs, all items in steps 1 and 6 above
will be inspected to determine responsibility for the
failure. Follow up with coaching or discipline as
appropriate.
Van Buren Train Consist Accuracy Process

Goal: Achieve and maintain train consist accuracy at a rate of 100%
or higher.
1. All ground crewmembers will compare the switch list(s) versus the
actual cut of cars on pull back.
2. If the list is good, the crew will mark the lists good and sign
their name, if the lists is not correct they will notify NCSC or
Pickle correctly. If a discrepancy is found, movement will stop
and confirmed with other crewmembers , then movement will resume at
that time.
When completed, switch lists will be initialed by the
crewmember that possessed them along with the Job ID and
deposited at the designated location.
When a track is handled (doubled) for a train set, the crew

will provide an updated track list to the crew that last
handles a track for them to confirm versus the actual cars.
Operating manager will analyze train consist accuracy daily. If
an exception occurs, all items in steps 1 and 4 above will be
inspected to determine responsibility for the failure.
Follow up with coaching or discipline as appropriate.

PERFORMING COVERED OR COMMINGLED SERVICE. FRA AND PAY REPORTING
AT THE END OF DUTY ARE ADMINISTRATIVE DUTIES THAT ARE
CONSIDERED COMMINGLED SERVICE. THIS TIME WILL ATTACH TO THE
TOTAL ON DUTY PERIOD. A "QUICK TIE UP" IS NOT CONSIDERED
COVERED SERVICE AND DOES NOT ATTACH AS IT IS REPORTED AT A
LATER DATE. THEREFORE, "RLVD" WILL ALWAYS EQUAL "RLSD" IF THE
EMPLOYEE IS UNDER 12 HOURS TTOD AND IS REPORTING A COMPLETE TIE
UP.
"RLVD" WILL -NOT- EQUAL "RLSD" IF THE EMPLOYEE IS OVER 12 HOURS
TTOD FOR ANY REASON. IF TOWING IN TO REGISTER AFTER HOURS OF
SERVICE EXPIRED AND IS NOT A VIOLATION THEN "RLVD" TIME WILL -
EQUAL- 12 HOURS TTOD. ANY "RLVD" TIME THAT IS REPORTED BEYOND
12 HOURS TTOD IS AN HOURS OF SERVICE VIOLATION AND WILL REQUIRE
AN EXPLANATION AND AUTHORIZING OFFICER AND IS SUBJECT TO FRA
REVIEW.
RLSD (RELEASED TIME) IS THE TIME OF FINAL RELEASE FROM DUTY
WHEN ACTUALLY COMPLETING THE TIE UP. THE REQUIRED REST PERIOD
BEGINS AT THE RLSD TIME. ALL REPORTING EMPLOYEES ARE REQUIRED
TO TIE UP AT A REPORTING TERMINAL. A TIE UP REPORTED BY PHONE
IS ONLY ALLOWABLE UNDER THE FOLLOWING CIRCUMSTANCES (1)COMPUTER
TERMINAL IS DOWN (2) NO COMPUTER TERMINAL IS AVAILABLE (3)

THE REPORTING TERMINAL. IF A PHONE TIE UP IS REQUIRED THEN
ONLY THIS INFORMATION MAY BE REPORTED VIA TELEPHONE (1)TERMINAL
ARRIVAL TIME (2)"RLVD" TIME (3)"RLSD" TIME (4) EMPLOYEE CONTACT
INFORMATION.
(C) WHEN CALLED TO REPORT FOR DUTY "ON YOUR REST", ENSURE THAT PTO
(PRIOR TIME OFF) AND START D/T (STARTING TIME) ARE CORRECT.
CHANGE THE PTO IF NECESSARY TO REFLECT ACTUAL REST AND ENTER
ACTUAL "RESTED" ON-DUTY TIME INSTEAD OF CMS GENERATED START
TIME.
(D) CHECK FOR ACCURACY BEFORE CERTIFYING ENTRIES AS CORRECT. AFTER
MAKING REQUIRED ENTRIES, CHECK THE TTOD (TOTAL TIME ON DUTY)
FIELD ON THE CERTIFICATION PAGE BEFORE ENTERING A "Y" TO
CERTIFY AS CORRECT. IF TTOD INDICATES GREATER THAN 12 HOURS,
AND THIS IS NOT CORRECT, ENTER AN "N". THE SYSTEM WILL RETURN
TO THE ENTRY SCREENS FOR ANY NECESSARY CORRECTIONS.
(E) IF AN ERROR IS MADE, AND UNINTENTIONALLY CERTIFIED AS CORRECT,
EXPLAIN FULLY IN THE COMMENTS FIELD.
(F) IF AN ACTUAL VIOLATION HAS OCCURRED, EXPLAIN THE CIRCUMSTANCES

RESPONSIBLE PARTY IF THE VIOLATION WAS AT THEIR INSTRUCTION.

SECTION: I
AMENDED:
SUBJECT: LIMOS
WICHITA SERVICE UNIT POLICY CONCERNING USE OF LIMOS:
BOTH CONTRACT AND UNION PACIFIC DRIVERS OF VANS TRANSPORTING TRAIN AND
ENGINE EMPLOYEES ARE RESTRICTED FROM MAKING BACK-UP MOVEMENT WITH
EMPLOYEES ON BOARD. IF A BACK-UP MOVEMENT IS REQUIRED WHILE PARKING,
TURNING AROUND, OR POSITIONING OF VANS, IT IS TO BE DONE WHEN NO
EMPLOYEES ARE IN THE VAN. THE ONLY EXCEPTION TO THIS POLICY IS IN THE
CASE OF AN EMERGENCY OR WHEN COMPLIANCE WITH THIS DIRECTIVE WOULD
CREATE A GREATER RISK TO SAFETY. IN ADDITION, BEFORE MAKING A REVERSE
MOVE, DRIVERS MUST TAKE APPROPRIATE PRECAUTIONS TO ENSURE THAT NO CREW
MEMBER IS BEHIND THE VEHICLE OR WITHIN 10-FEET OF THE VEHICLE.
THIS POLICY IS BEING IMPLEMENTED TO HELP THE VISIBILITY OF DRIVERS IN
MAKING BACK-UP MOVEMENTS AND TO REDUCE UNION PACIFIC EMPLOYEES'
EXPOSURE TO ACCIDENTS INVOLVING BACK-UP MOVEMENTS OF CREW VANS.
IN AN EFFORT TO EXPEDITE THE TRANSPORTING/DEADHEADING OF EMPLOYEES TO

THEIR TRAIN OR TO THEIR TIE-UP POINT TO OBTAIN REST AND MANAGE THE
COST OF LIMO EXPENSES, CONTRACT DRIVERS HAVE BEEN INSTRUCTED TO
TRANSPORT TRAIN AND ENGINE CREWS TO THEIR DESTINATION WITHOUT DELAY.
EXCEPT AS OUTLINED HEREIN, CONTRACT DRIVERS ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO

INCUR ANY WAITING TIME EXPENSES OR DELAY ONCE CREWS HAVE BEEN PICKED
UP AND ARE ENROUTE TO THEIR DESTINATION.
GIVEN THE DISTANCE TO BE TRANSPORTED/DEADHEAD, BRIEF RESTROOM STOPS

ARE PERMITTED.
CREWS TIED-UP UNDER THE HOURS OF SERVICE OR RELIEVED FROM SERVICE ON

LINE AND ARE BEING TRANSPORTED/DEADHEADED TO THE OFF-DUTY POINT, MAY
REQUEST THE LIMO DRIVER STOP AT A FACILITY TO SECURE FOOD ON THE ROUTE
BEING USED. ONLY ONE STOP IS AUTHORIZED WITH DELAY NOT TO EXCEED 20
MINUTES.
CREWS THAT ARRIVE AT THEIR FINAL TERMINAL DURING THEIR TOUR OF DUTY
ARE NOT ENTITLED TO A MEAL PRIOR TO TIE-UP. CREWS THAT EXPIRE UNDER
THE HOURS OF SERVICE AT THEIR FINAL TERMINAL ARE NOT ENTITLED TO A
MEAL PRIOR TO TIE-UP.
EMPLOYEES NOT COMPENSATED FOR 'MEALS ENROUTE' ARRIVING AT THEIR FINAL

TERMINALS WITHOUT HAVING STOPPED TO EAT WITHIN THE LAST SIX HOURS AND
ARE THEN INSTRUCTED TO PERFORM SWITCHING OTHER THAN PUTTING THEIR
TRAIN AWAY (INCLUDING THE ENGINE) OR MOVES PERMITTED UNDER LOCAL OR
NATIONAL AGREEMENTS, WILL BE ALLOWED TO EAT PRIOR TO PERFORMING SUCH
ADDITIONAL WORK.
TRAIN AND ENGINE CREWS ARE INSTRUCTED TO IMMEDIATELY RELEASE LIMOS

UPON COMPLETION OF ANY DUTIES DIRECTLY ASSOCIATED WITH THE MOVEMENT OF
THEIR TRAIN.
DUTIES RELATED TO PROTECTING SHOVING MOVEMENTS, MAKING COUPLINGS, OR
SPOTTING CARS FROM WITHIN A VEHICLE UNLESS SPECIFICALLY AUTHORIZED BY
A LOCAL MANAGER.
DUTIES RELATED TO MAKING COUPLINGS OR SPOTTING CARS FROM WITHIN A
MOVING OR STOPPED VEHICLE AT ANY TIME.
ALL TRAIN, ENGINE & YARDMEN (TE&Y) ARE PROHIBITED TO USE ANY VEHICLE
TO CIRCUMVENT ANY OF THEIR REQUIRED RESPONSIBILITIES DURING THE COURSE
OF A TOUR OF DUTY. THIS INCLUDES BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO PROTECTING
SHOVING MOVEMENTS, LINING SWITCHES OR DERAILS, MAKING COUPLINGS, AND
SPOTTING RAILCARS.
NO MOVEMENTS, INCLUDING THE DUTIES MENTIONED ABOVE, WILL OCCUR WHILE

THE CREW MEMBER IS IN A VEHICLE, MOVING OR STOPPED.
THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS APPLY TO ALL REMOTE CONTROL OPERATIONS AS WELL.
COMMUNICATION WITH OTHER TRAIN CREWS VIA RADIO COMMUNICATIONS WHILE IN

A VEHICLE IS PROHIBITED UNLESS COMMUNICATION IS RELATED TO THE
LOCATION OF THE TRAIN OR TRAIN CREW, OR ANY EMERGENCY THAT MAY ARISE.
DURING SWITCHING, BACKING AND SHOVING OPERATIONS, ALL MOVEMENTS MUST

BE STOPPED BEFORE CHANGING RADIO CHANNELS IF THE RADIO IS BEING USED
TO CONTROL THE MOVEMENT. AFTER COMMUNICATION IS RE-ESTABLISHED,
MOVEMENT CAN CONTINUE.
IF A VEHICLE IS UTILIZED FOR TRANSPORTATION FROM ONE LOCATION TO

ANOTHER, ENSURE SAFETY IS MAINTAINED BY FOCUSING ON THE TASK AT HAND,
AVOID DISTRACTIONS, MAINTAIN PROPER FOOTING WHEN GETTING INTO OR OUT
OF VEHICLES, OBSERVE YOUR SURROUNDINGS AND ASSESS THE RISK BEFORE
GETTING OUT OF VEHICLES. ALWAYS WEAR YOUR SEATBELT WHEN RIDING IN ANY
MOVING VEHICLE.
FOR EXAMPLE:
A CREW MEMBER UTILIZES A VEHICLE (LIMO) TO BE TRANSPORTED TO THE
NORTH END OF YARD "A" FROM THE SOUTH END TO PROTECT A SHOVE
MOVEMENT.
THE CREW MEMBER THEN GETS OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND COMPLIES WITH
THE APPROPRIATE RULES TO PROTECT THE MOVEMENT. OR, THE CREW
MEMBER RIDES THE MOVEMENT PROTECTING THE SHOVE TO THE STOPPING
POINT, THEN GETS OFF OF THE EQUIPMENT AND GETS INTO THE VEHICLE
TO BE TRANSPORTED TO THE HEAD-IN FOR ADDITIONAL MOVES.
