1 CN The Rules Listed Apply to Operating in the Chicago Area OPERATING RULES L. COMMUNICATION AND ELECTRONIC DEVICES. The use of railroad supplied or personal electronic devices must not interfere with operating employees covered by the Federal Hours of Service law during performance of safety related duties. This rule does not apply to railroad radios. Electronic devices may be used to respond to an emergency involving railroad operations. They also may be used in place of the radio, when radio failure occurs, however all radio rules will apply to electronic devices. When operating company vehicles or off-track equipment, hands-free technology must be utilized unless vehicle is stopped. Railroad Supplied Electronic Devices The use of railroad supplied electronic devices by Engineers is prohibited: On a moving train, or When any crew member is working on the ground, or riding equipment during a switching operation, or During any time when another employees of the railroad is assisting in the preparation of the train, i.e. utility employees. The use of railroad supplied electronic devices by other employees is prohibited: On a moving train or on-track equipment, unless authorized for company business, and: 1. A safety briefing is conducted, and all agree it is safe to do so, or 2. Within the body of a passenger train or business car. Outside the locomotive cab or on-track equipment, unless: 1. Not fouling the track, and 2. All crew members agree that it is safe to use the device. Other Electronic Devices 1. Railroad Supplied Devices may be used to take a photograph of a safety hazard or violation of a rail safety law, regulation, order, or standard, provided: It is only used for business purposes, The camera is turned off immediately after the documentation has been made, and If used in the cab of a moving train, it is not used by the locomotive engineer. 2. Stand-alone calculators may be used for authorized business purposes. 3. A medical device that is consistent with the railroad s standards for medical fitness for duty. Operating Employees use of Personal Electronic Devices The use of personal electronic devices is prohibited by operating employees while on duty and must be turned off with any earpiece removed unless authorized by the company or in an emergency. This does not apply when employees are relieved of responsibility for the train during a break or other duties, and the train is properly secured or is in the responsibility of another crew. Operating Employees in Deadhead Status Unless otherwise restricted in this rule, employees in deadhead status and not inside the cab of a controlling locomotive may use an electric device only if the employee is not using the device in such a way that interferes with any railroad operating employee s personal safety or performance of safetyrelated duties. If deadheading inside the cab of a controlling locomotive, electronic devices must be turned off with any earpiece removed from the ear: When on a moving train, When any member of the crew is on the ground or riding rolling equipment during a switching operation, or When any railroad employee is assisting in the preparation of the train for movement DUTIES OF TRAIN AND ENGINE CREW MEMBERS. Engineers and conductors must ensure their subordinates are familiar with their duties, determine the extent of their experience and knowledge of the rules, and instruct them, when necessary, how to perform their work properly and safely. Unless required by rule, or authorized by a company officer, crew members on the head end of freight trains must ride in the cab of the controlling locomotive. Engineer (References to locomotive engineers in these rules also apply to remote control operators.) 1. Engineers are responsible for safely and efficiently operating the engine. A student engineer or other qualified employee may operate the engine under close supervision of the engineer. 2. Engineers must check with the conductor to determine if any cars or units in the train require special handling. Conductor 1. Conductors supervise the operation and administration of trains, and are responsible for the freight carried by their train. They are responsible for ensuring the freight is delivered with any accompanying documents to its destination or terminal. Freight conductors must maintain any required records. All persons employed on trains must obey the conductor s instructions, unless the instructions endanger safety or violate rules. CN-1

2 2. Conductors must advise the engineer and RTC of any restriction placed on equipment being handled. 3. Conductors must compare the total number of cars and locomotives shown on their Train Journal with Defective Equipment Detectors and AEI Readers at each opportunity, especially after: Train departs Initial Terminal Crew first takes charge of train Set-outs and pick-ups on line All Crew Members 1. Crew Members in Cab of Controlling Locomotive At least 2 miles in advance, crew members in the cab of the controlling locomotive must communicate to each other any restrictions or other known conditions and required actions that affect the safe operation of their train to allow the engineer to take proper action. If proper action is not being taken, crew members must remind the engineer of the conditions and required action. Crew members must also be alert for signals. They must: Communicate to each other the names of signals affecting their train as soon as signals become visible or audible. Continue to observe signals and announce any change of aspect until the train passes the signal. Clearly communicate to each other the speed of the train as it passes a signal with an indication that is less than Clear. 2. Radio Transmission Except when switching, a crew member other than the engineer must transmit the engine number, direction, location, and signal name when the head end of the train: A. Passes a signal at a control point or is the approach to a control point that requires: Being prepared to stop at the next signal. Being prepared to pass the next signal at Restricted Speed, or Restricted Speed B. Stops for a signal that requires stopping. 3. Proper Action If the engineer and/or conductor fail to comply with a signal indication or take proper action to comply with a restriction or rule, crew members must immediately take action to ensure safety, using the emergency brake valve to stop the train, if necessary FUSEE. If a train approaches an unattended fuse burning on or nears its track, the train must immediately be brought to a stop consistent with good train handling. Stop before passing the fuse when operating in accordance with Rule 518 (Movement at Restricted Speed) or Rule 520 (Movement on Non-Main Track). After stopping, the train must proceed at restricted speed until the head end is 1 mile beyond the fuse. If an unattended burning fuse is beyond the first rail of an adjacent track, the fuse does not apply to the track on which the train is moving LOCOMOTIVE WHISTLE QUIET ZONES. At locations designated in the timetable, whistle signal 410(7) must not be sounded for public grade crossings except when: Emergency or dangers situations exist, or Rule 529 is in effect. If Roadway Workers are on or near a crossing in a quiet zone, use whistle signal 410(6). When the whistle is sounded, engineer must notify RTC with the following information: When, Where, and Why All Locomotive Whistle Quiet Zones are in effect 24 hours unless otherwise noted in Timetable Instructions. Locomotive Whistle Quiet Zones that are not 24 hours must be equipped with both a standard Whistle sign and No-Whistle sign on each post SHOVING MOVEMENTS.. Before shoving cars, a job briefing must be conducted between the engineer and the employee directing the shove, which will include: The means of communication to be used, and Type of point protection to be provided. Point protection must be provided by one of the following methods: 1. Employee riding the leading end of the movement, When the remaining portion of track can be seen, and no intervening switches or derails could affect movement, employee may drop off, continuing to observe the shove until completed. Employee must ride for the duration of the shove when visibility is restricted. 2. Employee positioned in advance of the movement who can see the movement during the entire duration of the shove, or 3. Employee monitoring a camera or other technology. The employee directing the shoving movement must not be involved in any unrelated tasks for the duration of the shove, and must give signals or instructions to control the movement. These instructions do not apply to: Cars that have been kicked, humped or dropped Push-pull operations when operated from the leading end of the movement CN-2

3 Manned helper service or distributed power locomotives when operated from the leading end of the movement. Snow plow operations While performing roadway maintenance work under the direction of an EIC. Movements prescribed by Rule 503. When cars are shoved on a signaled main track, controlled siding, or any track where CTC is in effect, permission of the RTC or control operator is not required when the movement will remain within a block, and Restricted Speed applies. Point protection must be provided by method 1 or 2 above. However, if method 1 is being used, the employee must remain on the point for the duration of the movement SHOVING MOVEMENTS AUTHORIZED BY THE RTC. The requirements of Rule 502 do not apply to shoving movements authorized by the RTC on main tracks, controlled sidings, or any track where CTC is in effect. Obtain permission from the RTC. Permission must not be given: Until it has been verified there are no authorities or Planned Work limits in effect behind the shoving movement, unless conflicting movements have been protected. If main track has been removed from service in the same or overlapping limits. When authorized under these conditions: Movement does not extend beyond train s authority to the main track. Movement will not be made into or within yard limits, automatic interlocking limits, or drawbridges. Movement must not exceed 25. Movement must not enter or foul a highwayrail grade crossing or pedestrian crossing except as provided by Rule 504. When a shoving movement is made into or within a control point or manual interlocking limits: Signal governing movement must display an indication more favorable than Restricting, Each signal affecting the movement must be continuously observed by a member of the crew who can determine that the signal changes to its most restrictive indication after the movement has passed it, and Movement does not exceed the train s length SHOVING OVER CROSSINGS. Do not shove, kick, or drop cars into or through a highway-rail grade crossing or pedestrian crossing until: Crossing gates are fully lowered, or A qualified employee is positioned at the crossing, and is able to communicate with the train, or At crossings where only flashing lights or cross bucks provide warning, no traffic is approaching or stopped at the crossing, and the leading end of the movement does not exceed 15 through the crossing. If traffic is approaching or stopped at the crossing, stop and proceed over the crossing only as directed by employee on the ground at the crossing YARD LIMITS. Yard Limits are in effect on main tracks only, are designated by Yard Limit signs, and are listed in the timetable. In Yard Limits, trains are authorized to use the main track, however, Timetable Instructions may require contacting an employee for routing instructions. All trains and engines entering or moving within Yard Limits must move at restricted speed unless operating under a block signal indication that is more favorable than Approach. When it is known or seen in advance that a block signal indication will require a train to operate at Restricted Speed, the movement must be at restricted speed at that block signal, or as soon as possible consistent with good train handling MOVEMENT IN DESIGNATED TERRITORY A. On tracks designated in the timetable, trains will operate with the current of traffic if the RTC gives verbal authority or a controlled signal indicates proceed. Except for movements covered by Rule 503 Shoving Movements Authorized by the RTC, trains moving against the current of traffic or to Work Between two points must be authorized by Track Authority. B. On tracks designated in the timetable, trains will operate by block signal indication for both following and opposing movements on the same track, if the RTC gives verbal authority or a controlled signal indicates proceed. Conflicting movements must not be authorized until a thorough understanding has been made between the conflicting movements and the RTC. Instructions issued by the RTC must be repeated by those receiving them, and confirmed with that is correct before movements are made MOVEMENT AT RESTRICTED SPEED. When a train or engine is required to move at restricted speed, it must proceed prepared to stop within one-half the range of vision short of: Train Engine Railroad car Roadway workers or equipment fouling the track Stop signal, or Derail or switch lined improperly The crew must keep a lookout for broken rail and not exceed 20. CN-3

4 Comply with these requirements until the leading wheels reach a point where movement at restricted speed is no longer required MOVEMENT ON NON-MAIN TRACK. Except when moving on a track where a block system is in effect, trains, engines and on-track equipment must move on Non-Main Track, at a speed that allows them to stop within one half the range of vision short of: Train Engine Railroad car Roadway Workers or equipment fouling the track Stop signal, or Derail or switch lined improperly. Trains, engines, and on-track equipment within working limits established by means of inaccessible track may move only under the direction of the EIC INSPECTING PASSING TRAINS. When duties and terrain permit, at least two crew members of a standing train and other employees along the right of way, must inspect passing trains on the ground on both sides of the track. At locations where trains will meet, the train to arrive second must notify the first train when they pass the approach to the siding, to allow crew members to be in position for inspection. The engineer of the standing train must: If possible, stop the train at a location that allows an employee to perform the inspection from the opposite side of the track. Perform the inspection on the same side as the standing train. Look especially for the following conditions: Overheated journals Sticking brakes Sliding wheels Wheels not properly positioned on the rail Dragging equipment Insecure contents Signs of smoke or fire Headlight or marker improperly displayed Any other dangerous condition Report the results of the inspection to a crew member of the passing train AUTOMATIC WARNING DEVICES. A crossing equipped with automatic warning devices must not be fouled until the devices have been operating long enough to provide warning, and the crossing gates, if equipped, are fully lowered when the movement: Is on Non-Main Track or a siding, Is closely following another movement, Has been stopped within 3,000 feet of the crossing, Enters the main track or siding within 3,000 feet of the crossing, or Is within 3,000 feet of the crossing and speed has increased by more than 5. Do not actuate automatic warning devices unnecessarily by leaving switches open or permitting equipment to stand within the controlling circuit. When notified that commercial power is out to a crossing equipped with Automatic Warning Devices, but no report has been received of an Activation Failure or False Activation of the devices, RTC will notify all trains in the affected area requiring that trains do not foul crossings protected by these devices until the devices have been operating long enough to provide 20 seconds warning, and the crossing gates, if equipped, are fully lowered. When AC power indicating light is flashing or extinguished, notify the RTC immediately ACTIVATION FAILURE/FALSE ACTIVATION. Employees must observe all automatic crossing warning devices and report any that are malfunctioning to the RTC by the first available means of communication. RTC will issue instructions for the malfunction and these instructions will remain in effect until repairs are completed. A. ACTIVATION FAILURE. When notified of an activation failure: Stop before entering crossing Proceed only on signal from employee at the crossing If there is one properly equipped flagman available, proceed into crossing not exceeding 15 until the leading end of the train completely occupies the crossing. Then proceed at normal speed. If there are enough properly equipped flagmen to provide warning for each direction of highway traffic, or at least one uniformed law enforcement officer (railroad or police) at the crossing, movement may proceed at normal speed through the crossing. B. FALSE ACTIVATION. When notified of a false activation: Proceed into the crossing at 15 until the leading end of the train completely occupies the crossing. Then proceed at normal speed. If shoving, crossing must not be occupied until visible warning has been provided to motorists by a crew member on the ground at the crossing. If there is a properly equipped flagman available to provide warning for each direction of highway traffic or at least one uniformed law enforcement officer (railroad or police), movement may proceed through the crossing at normal speed. In either case of Activation Failure or False Activation, whistle signals 410(7) must be sounded regardless of any Locomotive Whistle Quiet Zone. When advised by signal employee at the crossing, Repairs have been completed at the crossing at MP, the instructions in GBO No. no longer CN-4

5 apply. Crew member will repeat the instructions to the signal employee, who will state, that is correct, (the signal employee s name) and the time. Crew member will write signal employee s name, time, and mark an X on the GBO RECEIVING OR DISCHARGING PASSENGERS. A train or engine must proceed with extreme care when moving alongside a passenger train receiving or discharging passengers. Before allowing passengers to entrain or detrain, crews of passenger trains must ascertain the location of other trains that could pass either side of their train while stopped unless tracks are separated by a physical barrier LEAVING EQUIPMENT IN THE CLEAR. Equipment must not be left where it will foul another track or cause injury to employees riding on the side of cars or engines. Where the clearance point is indicated, equipment must be left beyond that point. Where there is no indication of the clearance point, employees will determine if the equipment is clear of an adjacent track by taking a position on the end of the tie and close to the near rail of the adjacent track and raise their arm to shoulder height to the end of the car that is to be left. If the car is clear of the fingertips of the raised arm it is clear of the adjacent track HAND OPERATION OF SWITCHES. Job briefings will be conducted before employees use hand operated switches and derails, each time a work plan is changed, and at the end of the work. It will include: Name of employee responsible for operating the switch or derail. The work to be performed. The position in which the switch or derail is to be left. When spring or dual control switches are operated by hand, all rules governing hand-operated switches apply to them, except cars must not be dropped over them POSITION OF SWITCHES AND DERAILS. The employee handling a switch or derail is responsible for the position of the switch or derail being used and must: Be qualified on the operating rules pertaining to handling switches and derails. Visually check to see that switches and derails are properly positioned for the intended movement, the points fit properly, and the target, if equipped, corresponds to their position. Not operate a switch while equipment is standing or moving over it. Before shoving movement is made over switches, notify the engineer, Switches (Name or Number) are lined for the movement. The engineer will repeat the instruction, and the employee protecting the shove will respond, that is correct if repeated correctly. Equipment must not enter the Foul Zone of an adjacent track until the hand-operated switch is properly lined. Employees must not line or foul the switch if a conflicting movement is approaching. Do not line the switch away from equipment that enters a track until the movement has passed the clearance point in that track. When possible, crew members on the engine must see that the switches and derails near the engine are properly lined HAND OPERATION OF DUAL CONTROL SWITCHES. If the control operator cannot line the dual control switch to the desired position, or the control machine does not indicate that the switch is lined and locked, the control operator must authorize movement past the Stop indication and instruct the employee to operate the switch by hand. Movement may then proceed to that switch. Before passing over the switch, the train must stop and the employee must operate the switch by hand as outlined in Rule 714 (Procedure to Hand-Operate Dual Control Switches). The indications of signals governing movement over the switch are considered suspended while switches are in hand position. Movements will be governed by signals from the employee handling the switch PROCEDURE TO HAND-OPERATE DUAL CONTROL SWITCHES. An employee must get permission from the control operator to operate a dual control switch by hand. Operate the switch as follows: Unlock the switch lock. Place the selector lever in the HAND position or remove the hand crank from the holder. Operate the hand throw lever until the switch points move with the movement of the hand throw lever, and then line the switch points for the route to be used. After all wheels of at least one unit or car have passed over the switch points, return the switch to power (unless otherwise instructed by the control operator) by restoring the selector lever to the POWER or MOTOR position and lock. For other types of switch machines, follow the instructions for operation posted at the switch or by Timetable Instructions. When necessary for a locomotive engineer to hand operate a dual control switch without assistance from another employee, after hand operating the switch, it may be returned to power, provided all wheels of at least one unit of the locomotive consist are standing entirely between the opposing absolute signals that CN-5

6 govern movement over the switch. If the switch does not operate after being returned to power, movement may then proceed over the switch TRAIN DELAYED WITHIN A BLOCK. If a train has entered a block on a proceed indication that does not require restricted speed, and the train stops or its speed is reduced below 7 the train must: In ABS proceed at restricted speed until the next signal is visible, that signal displays a proceed indication, and the track to that signal is clear. Passenger trains making regular station stops will proceed prepared to stop in one half the range of vision until the next signal is visible, that signal displays a proceed indication, and the track to that signal is clear. In CTC proceed prepared to stop at the next signal until the next signal is visible and that signal displays a proceed indication STOP INDICATIONS AT CONTROL POINTS. At a signal displaying Stop, if no conflicting movement is evident, the train will be governed as follows: A crew member must immediately contact the control operator, unless the train has received Track & Time including the instruction Switch Yes, on the track governed by that signal. Before authorizing the train to proceed, the control operator must know the route is properly lined and no conflicting movement is occupying or authorized to enter the track between that signal and the next absolute signal governing movement, or the end of the signal system where applicable. If the route cannot be lined, control operator will verbally authorize movement, After stopping, (train) at (location) has authority to pass signal displaying Stop indication. Operate switch(es) by hand for your route, specifying route where applicable. Movement will then be governed by USOR Rule 713. Crew member will repeat the instructions to the control operator, who will check, and if correct, will respond, that is correct. When the train receives these instruction, After stopping, (train) at (location) has authority to pass signal displaying Stop indication, specifying route where applicable, the train must move at restricted speed. EXCEPTION 1 Opposing Movement: The control operator must instruct the engineer of an opposing movement to operate at restricted speed. Upon being advised by the engineer of the opposing movement that the train is operating at restricted speed, the control operator may then authorize the train at the Stop indication to proceed into the same limits, advising both crews of movements to be made. The opposing movement must move at restricted speed until notified by the control operator that the other train is no longer in the same limits, and its leading wheels have passed the next governing signal. EXCEPTION 2 Conflicting Movement: At a railroad crossing at grade, when a movement has stopped, but is clear of the conflicting route, the control operator may authorize another train to proceed, advising both crews of movement to be made. The stopped movement may make no movement until authorized by the control operator. EXCEPTION 3 Closed Station: 1. When a manual interlocking station is closed, movement at restricted speed may be made after: All switches have been lined for the route to be used. 2. The train has occupied the track within interlocking limits, clear of any conflicting route, for 10 minutes STOP INDICATIONS IN ABS TERRITORY. At a signal displaying Stop outside interlocking limits, the train will be governed as follows: After stopping, a train authorized beyond the signal (by Track Authority, Yard Limits, or Rule 520) must comply with one of the following procedures: 1. If authority beyond the signal is joint with other trains or employees, proceed at restricted speed. 2. Proceed at restricted speed to permit an engine, with or without cars, to couple to its own train or to a standing cut of cars, if the track between the engine and cars is clear. 3. Proceed at restricted speed when a crew member has contacted the RTC and obtained permission to pass the Stop indication. However, if the RTC cannot be contacted, move 100 feet past the signal, wait 5 minutes, then proceed at restricted speed AUTOMATIC INTERLOCKING NOT EQUIPPED WITH APPROACH SIGNALS. At an automatic interlocking that is not protected by an active approach signal, a movement must approach the absolute signal prepared to comply with a signal indicating Stop AUTHORITY TO ENTER CTC LIMITS. A train must not enter or occupy any track where CTC is in effect unless a controlled signal displays a proceed indication or the control operator authorizes: Movement past a Stop Indication. A train to enter a track between block signals as follows, (Train) at (location) has authority to enter (track) and proceed (direction.) After entering the track, the train is authorized to move only in the direction specified, or Track Authority ENTERING SIGNAL AT A HAND OPERATED SWITCH. At a hand-operated switch where an Entering Signal is located: Obtain authority from the RTC to open the switch and enter CTC. CN-6

7 Line switch, and if signal indicates proceed, movement may be made to the main track. After switch is lined, if signal does not indicate proceed, crew member must wait at the switch for 5 minutes. If after 5 minutes the signal does not indicate proceed, movement may be made to the main track at Restricted Speed, and notify the RTC immediately. However, if the block to be entered is occupied by its own standing train, or when the hand-operated switch is kept open, the movement may, after stopping, pass the Entering Signal displaying Stop without contacting the RTC and will then be governed by Rule 855 (Train Delayed within a Block) MANDATORY DIRECTIVES. Mandatory Directives are: Track Authority (TA) General Bulletin Order (GBO) Before being acted upon, conductor and engineer must each have a copy of all Mandatory Directives issued for their train, and they must be read and understood by all member of the crew who are responsible for the operation of the train. They will be retained for the duration of the train crew s work assignment ISSUING, COPYING, AND REPEATING MANDATORY DIRECTIVES. When transmitted by radio or other means of communication, Rail Traffic Controller or control operator must issue mandatory directives according to applicable operating rules and the following: State that a mandatory directive will be transmitted. Receiving employee will state when ready to copy. An employee operating the controls of moving equipment, either on-track or off-track, may not copy a mandatory directive. In addition, mandatory directives must not be transmitted to moving equipment if the issuing or receiving employee feels that it could adversely affect the safe operation. Issuing employee must write on the appropriate form and/or enter into the computer as they are being issued, not written ahead of time. The receiving employee must copy it in writing as transmitted. When transmitting and repeating numbers, they must first be pronounced, then stated by individual digit. After the mandatory directive has been received and copied, the employee must repeat all applicable portions. After verifying the accuracy of the repeat, the issuing employee will say, OK and give the time and initials. The employee copying will acknowledge by repeating the time and initials of the issuing employee. Mandatory directive is not in effect until the OK time and initials are shown on it. Once issued, repeated, and OK has been received, Track Authority may not be altered, added to or changed in any manner, except to add information in the lower lines of Box 8 joint Authority with between and, or to record release of a portion of the limits to the RTC. Track release lines below Box 6 are to be used when rolling up authority limits in Box TRACK AUTHORITY. In CTC Territory. The control operator may authorize a train, roadway worker, or on-track equipment to occupy a track or tracks within specified limits in CTC. Authority must include track designation and limits. Movement may be made in either direction within the specified limits, until the Track Authority is released. When Track Authority includes the instruction Switch Yes (SW-Y), the trackage between the opposing absolute signals of the control point is included. Switch No (SW-N) indicates authority between the opposing absolute signals is not included. Trains may enter limits without further authority at a location that includes the instruction Switch Yes (SW- Y). Movement must be made at Restricted Speed until leading wheels have passed the next signal. Trains must obtain verbal authority from the control operator to enter the limits at a location that includes the instruction Switch No (SW-N). Except at railroad crossings at grade, trains granted Track Authority may, after stopping, pass a Stop indication without further authority while within the limits. Movements must be made at Restricted Speed until leading wheels have passed the next signal. Outside CTC Territory. Track Authority in ABS and Non-Signaled Territory must include track to be used and exact locations such as station names, mile posts, or other clearly identifiable points. Authority on the main track begins at the station sign where there is no siding at that station. At stations where there is a siding, the Track Authority will specify which siding switch the movement is authorized to or from, i.e. East Anna, West Cora, etc, and occupancy of the foul zone will be designated by the instruction Switch Yes or Switch No. When Track Authority includes the instruction Switch Yes (SW-Y), the foul zone of the switch is included. Switch Yes (SW-Y) must not be issued at either end of the limits when an opposing movement will use the same switch to clear the main track. Switch No (SW-N) indicates authority to occupy the foul zone is not included. A movement authorized to proceed from one location to another, must move only in the direction specified. Notify the RTC if the main track is cleared CN-7

8 before reaching the last named location. When authorized to Work Between two locations, movement may be made in either direction. Non CTC territory to or from CTC: When a Track Authority is issued for movement in Non-CTC Territory that begins or ends at a CTC control point, the following will govern: SW-N will be shown at the CTC control point, and Signal indication or verbal authority from the control operator will be required to pass the control point to enter or leave the Track Authority limits stated JOINT MANDATORY DIRECTIVES. Whenever Joint Authority will be issued for multiple movements, the first train or Roadway Worker will be authorized with the first line of Box 8 Joint Authority between and, and movement will be unrestricted until notified of other movements in the limits. All subsequent movements authorized into the overlapping limits will be authorized with the lower lines of Box 8 Joint Authority with between and. Trains joint with Trains All trains authorized in the overlapping limits after the first train, will receive the identification of all previous trains authorized in the limits on their Track Authority Form. All movements by all trains must be made at Restricted Speed. In signaled territory, Restricted Speed is not required when: A job briefing is conducted between crew members of all trains in the overlapping limits which will include movements to be made, Switches on the route to be used are lined for the movement, and Operating under a block signal indication more favorable than APPROACH. Trains joint with Roadway Workers When a train is issued Joint Authority, and a Roadway Worker will be authorized into the overlapping limits, the EIC must contact the train to determine its location and movements being made. All subsequent movements must be made under the direction of the EIC. When a Roadway Worker is issued Joint Authority, and a train will be authorized into the overlapping limits, a crew member of the train must contact the EIC, and be governed by the EIC s instructions. All movements must be made at Restricted Speed unless otherwise authorized by the EIC. All instructions from the EIC must be repeated, and confirmed with that is correct. If the EIC reports clear of the overlapping limits while train(s) are still in the limits, the EIC must inform the train(s) of this fact. If direct communication with the train(s) is not possible, the RTC must: Relay instructions from the EIC to the train(s), or Void the authority to the train(s), and issue new Track Authority that does not include Joint Limits with the EIC DISPLAY OF YELLOW-RED SIGN. Yellow-red signs warn trains about Planned Work limits, and must be displayed: On the right side of the track Two miles in advance of limits, and During the hours Planned Work is in effect. Yellow-red signs will not be displayed on auxiliary tracks that enter the main track within Planned Work limits. Yellow-red sign may be displayed at the beginning of the limits, only when placing it in advance would require it to be displayed on a foreign railroad's track. When it is impossible to place a yellow-red sign 2 miles from the limits, the location of the sign must be shown on a GBO. Yellow-red signs may be displayed from one hour before the Planned Work takes effect until one hour after it expires. This does not extend the time limits beyond those listed in the GBO. During the hour before and the hour after Planned Work is in effect, attempt to contact the EIC for instructions. When a yellow-red sign is encountered without a corresponding GBO item, the train must proceed prepared to stop 2 miles beyond the yellow-red sign. If a red sign is displayed, be governed by Rule 1101 (Display of Red Sign). If there is no red sign, the train may proceed at Restricted Speed until the RTC confirms that no Planned Work is in effect at that location DISPLAY OF RED SIGN. Red Signs must be displayed to the right of the track for Planned Work limits and at other locations on main tracks and controlled sidings, where trains must stop. Once stopped do not proceed unless the EIC gives verbal permission, including the location of the sign. If permission is received before the train stops, the train may pass the red sign without stopping. When used with Planned Work they must be displayed: At the beginning of the limits. They will not be displayed on tracks that enter the main track within the limits. If conditions require Yellow-Red Sign to be displayed at the same location as the Red Sign, the Red Sign will be displayed closest to the rail, with the Yellow-Red Sign to the outside. In the direction of the first train to arrive at the limits after the Planned Work takes effect. If the Red Sign in the opposite direction cannot be placed at the same time, it must be displayed as soon as possible after the first sign. CN-8

9 Track may not be fouled by Roadway Workers until both Red Signs are displayed. When a red sign is encountered without a corresponding GBO item, the train must stop consistent with good train handling. Contact the RTC, and be governed by the RTC s instructions. On Non-Main Track, red signs will be displayed between the rails of tracks, and movements must not pass the sign until an employee of the class that placed it has removed it. Additionally, if the red sign is displayed beyond the first rail of an adjacent track, it does not apply to the track on which the train is moving. Equipment must not be placed on the track being protected, which will block a clear view of the red sign PLANNED WORK. Planned Work is the preferred method of protecting track work on a controlled track, and issued on a GBO. The limits must also be identified by yellow-red signs (2-mile advance warning) and red signs (at the beginning of the limits). All affected tracks must be identified on the GBO. Planned Work limits must not overlap with: Other Planned Work limits, or Work Project Protection No forward or shoving movement of a train may be made into or within Planned Work limits during the effective time without permission of the EIC. Once cleared for movement by the EIC, if the train stops or is delayed, EIC must be informed. A train within the limits at the time Planned Work takes effect must stop unless otherwise instructed by the EIC. Before arriving at the limits, a crew member must attempt to contact the EIC to avoid delay. All instructions from the EIC must be repeated and confirmed with that is correct and all movements made at Restricted Speed unless otherwise specified by the EIC. Instructions from the EIC may only be relayed by the RTC or control operator. If the EIC must leave Planned Work limits before expiration of time, a new EIC will be designated. The new EIC will communicate the change to the RTC, and to train crew members when giving instructions. If Planned Work limits must be canceled before the expiration time: EIC will notify the RTC If RTC is able to notify all affected trains, the limits will be canceled. EIC will then remove Red Signs first, and Yellow-Red Signs next. If RTC is not able to notify all affected trains, EIC must remain at the Planned Work limits to communicate with trains entering the limits until either released by the RTC or time limits expire GENERAL BULLETIN ORDER (GBO). GBO will be issued by the RTC, either individually or included in a TGBO or DOB. It will contain information on all conditions that affect the safe movement of trains, engines and on-track equipment, including: Temporary speed restrictions. Planned Work by Roadway Workers Tracks removed from service. Tracks that are normally clear which are blocked with equipment. Highway/rail crossing protection that has malfunctioned When a GBO protects track removed from service, do not use the track unless the GBO states the name or title of an employee who may authorize its use and that person directs all movement. When a GBO is issued to modify a rule, regulation, or timetable instruction, it must remain in effect until the Operating Bulletin that contains the change is posted TABULAR GENERAL BULLETIN ORDER (TGBO). All trains and the EIC of Roadway Workers that operate outside of Daily Operating Bulletin (DOB) limits must have a Tabular General Bulletin Order in their possession. TGBO will be addressed to a train symbol number, engine number, or name of crew member. When EIC requires TGBO, secure MOW TGBO which does not require confirmation from the RTC. Check TGBO for: Correct address. Coverage over entire route that train will operate. Item numbers are consecutive. Each item has a GBO number. This will be used when voiding an item. Total number of items received corresponds with the number of items listed. Crew members will initial the address and each page of the TGBO after it is read, and will sign the last page as evidence the TGBO is complete and understood. If a TGBO is addressed to a train, it is only in effect to the crew while they are on that train unless otherwise authorized by the RTC. Contact the RTC if TGBO: Is incorrect or is intended for another train. Is not received. Is needed to be retained for the next tour of duty. However before initiating movement on the next tour of duty, verify with RTC that no additional GBOs are required DAILY OPERATING BULLETIN (DOB). Daily Operating Bulletin limits are designated in the timetable instructions. Movements must have the current DOB when operating in DOB limits, except if in possession of a TGBO that covers the entire limits CN-9

10 over which the movement will operate. DOB will take effect at 0200 daily, and will remain in effect for 24 hours unless extended by the RTC. At the expiration time of the current DOB, movement must stop if unable to: Clear DOB limits. Obtain a copy of the new DOB, or Contact the RTC WORK PROJECT PROTECTION. Work Project Protection will be issued on a GBO by the RTC when an employee is providing warning for a work project that is in close proximity to railroad property. Limits may be issued on any track, and will be shown by exact mile posts, specific switches or station names. Before arriving at the limits, a crew member must attempt to contact the employee by radio to avoid delay, and to report the train's location and the track being used. The employee issued Work Project Protection will determine if trains, engines, or cars are inside the limits when the protection takes effect. Unless otherwise provided, the employee must be contacted before passing the location indicated. All instructions from the employee must be repeated and confirmed with "that is correct." Instructions may only be relayed by the RTC, control operator, or when in yards by the yardmaster. Work Project Protection may not overlap with Planned Work Limits.

When an employee intends to release cars in motion, a minimum of 3 brakes will be required on each track. At no time should a car(s) be released under their own momentum into a clear track. Cars within the tracks being switched into should not be left just in the clearance point at the North end. Room must be left to allow some movement once couplings are made. No car is to be released in motion on any track at a speed in excess of 3. Joliet Yard Close Clearance - Due to close clearance, do not ride the side of cars when cars occupy the adjacent track on the side to be ridden. Joliet Radio Channels - Joliet Yardmaster monitors Channels (16 16) and (91 91) on the main tracks, and Channels (10 10) and (41 41) in the yard. Road trains making setouts or pickups at Joliet, after receiving instructions from the yardmaster, may use Channel (47 47) or (53 53) while doing work.
