Those numerical aspects are not used on MNR territory. Not 100% sure if they're used when the M8s are on SLE.

Then you would be leaving the company, and the restrictions would not apply.
Assistant Conductor has a 3 year lock in period. HR always mentions that during interview process.
Track one is used for equipment to changes end coming into or out of the yard. Such as trains coming out of the yard and deadheading up to New Canaan or Danbury or Waterbury in the morning. Getting rid of it would cause congestion and force the RTC to use a platform track for a train not making a st...
Third rail runs only just past CP 35 on the Hudson Line, not Poughkeepsie. Also a bunch of cows got shocked way back when they still had 3rd rail in CT, so they outlawed it. Back in early 1900s.

Even if there are several trains in a section, particularly in two track territory like the upper Harlem, the signal system will reduce the speed of the trains, thus reducing the of load the trains are drawing from the tra...
On one occasion we ran a 10 car M7 consist to NWP during the evening rush. Had to do a double-take on that one. We usually ran with 10 M3s, so when I saw M7s I thought we would have people sitting in the luggage racks, but was pleasantly surprised to see we somehow had 10 cars. It was common to move...
