CONDUCTORS USED OFF ASSIGNMENT
_____________________________________
IT IS AGREED:
1. A conductor withheld from his regular or temporary assignment and used in road service on an "irregular assignment" as a conductor when he does not stand for such work by virtue of any rule or agreement will be "made whole" by the allowance of the earnings of such irregular assignment or the earnings of his regular assignment, whichever is greater, plus 50 miles for each round trip or tour of duty used on such irregular assignment.
NOTE 1: For the purposes of this agreement "irregular assignment" means any job worked by the employe in lieu of his regular or temporary assignment on which he was unable to perform service because of being required to work such "irregular assignment".
NOTE 2: An employe used on an "irregular assignment" will be considered available for his regular or temporary assignment if he has eight hours off duty after completing the "irregular assignment".

(1) A conductor assigned to pool freight service is used on an irregular assignment on November 1, making 100 miles. He misses his pool freight turn on November 1 which made 300 miles, lie will be allowed 350 miles (300 miles plus 50 penalty miles.)
(2) A conductor assigned to pool freight service is used on an irregular assignment on November 1, 2 and 3, making 100 miles each day. He misses two pool freight turns - one turn on November 1 and one turn on November 2 which made a total of 600 miles. He will be allowed 750 miles
