Held At Other Than Home Terminal/Suitable Lodging/
Expenses Away From Home
Section 1 - Held-at-Other-Than Home Terminal
Trainmen in pool freight and in unassigned service held at other than home terminal will be paid on the minute basis for the actual time so
held after the expiration of 16 hours from the time relieved from previous duty at a rate per hour of one-eight of the daily rate paid them for
the last service performed. If held 16 hours after the expiration of the first 24 hour period from the time relieved, they will be paid for the
actual time so held during the next succeeding eight hours, or until the end of the second 24-hour period, and similarly for each 24-hour
period thereafter.
Should a trainman be called for service or ordered to deadhead after pay begins, held away from home terminal time shall cease at the
time pay begins for such service or deadheading.
Payments accruing under this article shall be paid for separate and apart from pay for the subsequent service or deadheading.
For the purpose of applying this article the railroad will designate a home terminal for each crew in pool freight and in unassigned service.
When conductors or trainmen are called to deadhead, held away from home terminal time due under the rules will be allowed up to the
departure time of the train on which deadheaded.
Section 2
Trainman held at any point for special service and not used until after the expiration of twelve hours from the time his regular place is called
to depart, or from the time which he would otherwise have been called for, shall be paid one minimum day in the class of service for which
held. If more than 16 additional hours shall elapse between the expiration of the initial twelve-hour period and the time actually called for
service or deadhead, any time between the expiration of the additional 16-hour period and the time called for service or deadhead, up to a
maximum of eight hours, shall be paid for a pro rata rate in addition to the time earned on the trip, and so on thereafter each additional 24-
hour period until used or released. When so held and paid under this Section, Section 1 above shall not apply. When properly held under
this article it shall not be considered a runaround.
In the application of this section to trainmen who are deadheaded for special service or who are held at any point, other than home terminal,
after reaching there in special service, the phrase "the time which he would otherwise have been called for" will be considered to mean the
time of arrival at that point, except that if men are permitted to deadhead on a train ahead of the train on which they are called to deadhead,
the "time of arrival" as referred to in this understanding shall be the time of arrival of the train on which they were called to deadhead.

B. If in the future carrier desires to offer suitable accommodations other than those presently provided at any terminal, negotiations will be
undertaken promptly with respect to such proposed changes.
It is understood, however, that any of the accommodations may, at the Carrier's election, be replaced by company dormitories, provided
such dormitories are constructed in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 hereof.
Section 5

points for tying up crews) other than the designated home terminal of the crew assignment for four (4) hours or more, each member of the
crew so tied up shall be provided suitable lodging at the Carrier's expense. Suitable lodging or an equitable allowance in lieu thereof shall
be worked out on a local basis.
Section 8
When the Carrier ties up a road service crew (except short turnaround passenger crews), or individual members thereof, at a terminal (as
defined in Section 7) other than the designated home terminal for four (4) hours or more, each member of the crew so tied up shall receive
a meal allowance of $6.00, and an additional $6.00 meal allowance will be provided after being held an additional eight (8) hours.
NOTE: For the purposes of Sections 7 and 8, extra board employees shall be provided with lodging and meal allowances in accordance
