Discipline Alert

Hot Items!

 

Last week in the St. Louis Service Unit an Engineer was running a train that had an engine in the consist that was passed due a periodic inspection.  These are yearly inspections that are done by the mechanical people.  He had no knowledge about the inspection being due but local management was waiting on him to arrive at his destination to see if the engine was on line and operating.  Luckily the engine was dead but he was informed by a Director of Road Operations that an exception would have been taken had that engine been operating and discipline assessed. We found out that the way to check this is on the “BU” for the train.  If you have a “PI (PD)” symbol in the “Next Assignment” column as shown below shut the engine down and do not use it.
