It is agreed that the provisions of Ru] 41 of the current agreement between the Order of Railway Conductors & Brakemen and Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen and Union Pacific Railroad Company, Eastern District, effective November 1, 1957, are hereby modified with respect to its application to the Denver‑Sterling and Denver­Cheyenne freight pools, Wyoming Division, to the extent herein provided:

 

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

 

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

 

3. Crews on short turnaround, either out of Denver or the far terminal, 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 blue print board. In the event the crew is run around during rest period, they will be placed first out at the expiration of their rest period.

 

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. Pool freight crews making a short turnaround trip out of either terminal, or tying up between terminals, and receiving legal rest, will take position on board as per arrival at terminal.

 

7. Crews added to pool in accordance with Schedule Rule 38 will not be considered as runaround when other pool crews arriving at Denver after 1 PM are placed ahead of them under the pro­visions of this agreement.

 

8. Upon arrival at the home or far ter­minal, trainmen who have been runaround, as indi­cated in paragraphs 1 and 2, will notify proper officer as to their standing on the list at the objective terminal. The Company will not be sub­jected to penalty payments because trainmen fail to furnish information, or furnish incorrect information. This does not, however, estop the manage­ment from taking disciplinary action when it is developed the employee have furnished incorrect information, and no runarounds will be claimed be­cause crews did not depart in their first‑in, first‑out order.

 

This agreement will become effective April 1, 1968. It will automatically terminate ten (10) days after service of notice by either party upon the other of desire to te minate it, at which time the agreement will
