MODIFICATION OF RULE 41
It is agreed that the provisions of Rule 41 of the current agreement between the Order of Railway Conductors and Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen and Union Pacific Railroad Company, effective June 1, 1941, are hereby modified with respect to its application to the Third Subdivision (Laramie to Rawlins), Wyoming Division, to the extent herein provided:

1.   Pool freight crews who are runaround by other pool freight crews in Laramie yard, or enroute between Laramie and Rawlins, will upon arrival at Rawlins be given the same relative position on the list at Rawlins that they held prior to leaving Laramie, except that crews with less time to work than required by Rules 42(a) and (b) of current schedule, or who became first out before having required rest, shall stand first out after rest period, and upon arrival at Laramie shall be given same relative position on board as was held prior to leaving Laramie on last trip.

2.   Pool freight crews who are runaround by other pool freight crews in Rawlins yard, or enroute between
Rawlins and Laramie, will upon arrival at Laramie be given the same relative position on the list at
Laramie that they held prior to leaving Rawlins on last trip, except as provided in Section 1.

3.   Crews earning 200 miles or more on any one - ­way trip, either out of Laramie or Rawlins, will take
their turn as per their arrival at either terminal.

4. Crews requesting rest in accordance with Rule 71 will retain their position on the blue­print board, and in the event they become first out before their rest period is up and other crews run around them, they will establish a new position on the board as of the time they are called.

5. Crews that double out of far terminal and are relieved enroute due to insufficient time will be given same relative position on list at home terminal as held prior to departure from far terminal.

6.(a)Pool freight crews that make short turnaround trip between Laramie and Medicine Bow and points short of Medicine Bow will stand first out at Laramie 12 hours after arrival, unless they become first out prior to that time. Pool freight crews making turnaround trip between Laramie and points beyond Medicine Bow will take position on board at Laramie as per arrival.

6.(b)Pool freight crews making short turnaround trip out of far terminal, Rawlins, will take position on board as per arrival at Rawlins.

6.(c)Pool freight crews tying up between terminals and receiving legal rest, will take position on board as per arrival at terminal.
