Gentlemen:
This has reference  to General Chairman Sampier’s letter dated December 29, I960 requesting joint conference with all General Chairmen of the  train service organizations in regard to claim filed by Engineer L, J.  Doner and Fireman R.  E.  Dora for 28 minutes  plus 1 hour at pro  rata rates of pay,  Hay 28,  I960, Fremont, Nebraska,  which claim was declined by Mr.  Singent, The  above mentioned claim was reviewed in conference on January 16,  1961.
In this particular instance  it was necessary for the Union Pacific road crew to remove  their locomotive  from the  train in the C&NW yard at Fremont to  clear the  lead in order to permit the  C&NW yard engine  to  go   to the rear end of the train to  remove a bad order car,  which was  the 12th car from  the  rear end.     After  the Union Pacific locomotive was recoupled to  the  train it was necessary to pull the entire  train forward to again clear the lead at the rear end  to permit the C&NW yard crew to  remove  the  bad order.
It was your position that the service was performed in the C&NW yard and it was generally understood by all concerned that the Union Pacific load crews would not be required to  set out or assist in setting out cars in the C&NW yard and that under Section 4(b) of the  agreement dated April 15,  I960 covering interchange of trains  between the Burlington and Union Pacific at Grand Island which reads  as follows*
"Bad order car or cars on westbound trains will be set out by yard crews.    However, road crews may pull
their train or a portion thereof forward to permit yard crew to remove bad order car or cars, in which event,
the  road crew will be compensated in accordance with Rules 19GO  and 32 (K) of  the  B.L.E.  and B.L.F.& E.
Agreements and 0,R.C.&B,-B. of R.T.   Agreement, respectively."
the road crews would receive payment as provided therein.
It is agreed that when Union Pacific road crews in the C&NW yard at Fremont are required to pull their train, or a portion of the train,  forward  to permit C&NW yard crews to  remove cars,  the road crews will be compensated in accordance with Rules 19(k)  and 32(K)  of  the  B.L,E.  & E. Agreements  and O.R.C.  & B.  - B.ofR.T. Agreement respectively. It is understood that no payment will be allowed when a Union Pacific road crew merely removes their road engine from the train incident to a C&NW crew adding or removing cars.
The  Instant claim of Engineer L. J.  Boner and Fireman R. E. Dorn will be allowed.

Dear Mr. Garges:
This refers to your letter dated September 17, 1979 and prior correspondence relative miles allowed to crews
delivering eastbound trains to the Chicago § North Western at Fremont .
The track used to make the deliveries was extended by 2250 feet.  This is an increase of approximately 4/5 of
a mile each trip.  Allowance provided in the May 2, 1963 Agreement for making these deliveries will be increased to 5 miles.  An additional mile will be allowed on claims of record.
Yours truly,
J. E. Trummer
