"Note 2: On the Fourth Operating Subdivision for trains yarded at Collins final terminal delay time commences at MP 6 (Collins). " Under the quoted agreements, a problem arises in the calculation of final terminal delay time for those crews arriving Albina from the East over the Kenton line on so-called run-thru trains, i.e., trains that operate through to Argo, and who, as a consequence, may be relieved IT IS AGREED: In the application of Rule 8, for those Fourth Subdivision crews arriving Albina over the Kenton Line and for whom final terminal delay would ordinarily commence at Mile Post 6 (Collins), final terminal delay time will commence when the train has been stopped for the express purpose of changing crews.
Example 2: Train has a meet at Champ, and makes a setout at Kenton and changes crews at Kenton. Final delay would commence when crew is relieved. Example 3: Train sets out at Kenton and then pulls down to Collins to effect crew change. Final delay would commence upon stopping at Collins. NOTE: Crews affected by this agreement will advise train dispatcher of time stopped for crew change for purpose of beginning final delay. This agreement, which is in settlement of the dispute growing out of the notice served by the Organization on August 1, 1984, shall become effective January 1, 1985 and shall remain in effect until changed or modified in accordance with the provisions of the Railway Labor Act, Dated at Portland, Oregon this 7th day of December, 1984.
