This local has been release to work the CTI, MON and WTI industries North of Mojave.
This train needs to be operated during a dispatched session as it requires alignment through CTC-controlled turnouts.
Plan carefully for your moves at the MON facility. There are four different car types used at MON and each has a specific spotting location as follows:
- Open hopper cars should be spotted on the spur off the S/E of the facility with the coal unloading equipment.
- Covered hopper cars go first into the North entered track immediately next to the silos and the remained on the other North entering track with the loading tower.
- Tank cars go on the South entering stub on the far side of the facility.
- Box cars go into the other South entering stub in the center of the facility.
Please make a registry entry indicating the local is "On Duty" and later update the status to "Complete" once the work is done. Also make a reply to this post with start start and completion updates.
It is not expected that you will complete this work in a single session. You can work with the dispatcher to find an approriate location to spot the train and then update the train status in the registry as "Crew Change" and noting the location in the comments. Also make a reply to this post with a status update.
Thanks!
