RULE 40. EXTRA ENGINEERS--OUTLYING POINTS. (ROAD OR YARD).  An extra engineer sent to an outlying point for service will be released and returned to the extra board point, if other extra engineers are available at the expiration of six (6) days, or when working on an assignment having a layover day or rest day, he shall be released upon completion of the work on the date preceding such layover day or rest day. Where the services of an extra engineer are required at such outlying point after the sixth (6) day or after the layover day or rest day, as the case may be, another extra engineer will be sent to the outlying point for a like period.

Under this rule deadhead allowance shall be paid to the first extra engineer for deadheading to the outlying point and to the last extra engineer returning to the extra board point after all the extra service has been completed. Intermediate deadheading shall not be paid for except as provided in Section (b). Where service at the outlying point is occasioned by application of the mileage regulations or as provided in Section (i) of Rule 117, no deadhead allowance shall be paid.  

(b) When it becomes necessary because of sickness or emergency to relieve one extra engineer by another extra engineer at an outlying point prior to the time stated in Section (a), the extra engineer relieved shall not be paid any deadhead allowance which might otherwise accrue under Section (a), but the relieving engineer shall be paid deadhead allowance to the outside point.

(c) Under this rule an extra engineer may be used to fill two (2) or more vacancies at the outlying point provided he is released at the expiration of six (6) days or the day preceding the layover day of the position he is filling as provided herein:

Note: For application of this rule to Clearfield, see Appendix No. 29.
