* Claim for 100 miles for entire train crew.

Each of the instant claims will be allowed because claimants performed one of the following:

  1. Units were actually “peddled” around the yard.
  2. A unit or units were picked up at the diesel house or ready track by the head brakeman, added to the power consist which was on a track adjacent to the train, and the entire power consist was then doubled to the train.
  3. The power consist was cut off the train by the head brakeman and set to another track. He then took a unit or units from the power consist to the diesel house or ready track, leaving the balance of the power consist on the adjacent track.

Only the claim for the head brakeman will be allowed in those claims which were submitted for the entire crew.
