Those Avery labels are used on my baseball-card-collector sleeves, for waybills which don't contain reporting marks and car number. The labels do fit almost exactly on THOSE sleeves.<br />Tony ThompsonTony Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11593061828601275378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3218524178230712938.post-3367636790285004152014-05-31T14:17:17.404-07:002014-05-31T14:17:17.404-07:00Tony -

Do you cut the label?Bob Burkenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3218524178230712938.post-81588272437879892032013-10-31T23:23:16.980-07:002013-10-31T23:23:16.980-07:00Good question, Mark.

At the next session, it will be picked up there and put into the Mt. Shasta turn so it can go to the Mt. Shasta freight house. The session after that, the Mt. Shasta Turn will return it to Dunsmuir so it can be put into a through freight running to Klamath Falls, the final destination.<br /><br />Crews are instructed in general that if a car is sitting at its waybill destination, it has not been unloaded. If the waybill destination is other than the car location, pick it up. The LCL cars are an exception, and crews know the pattern of these cars' movement.<br />Tony ThompsonTony Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11593061828601275378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3218524178230712938.post-50986560322335640092013-10-31T23:16:34.533-07:002013-10-31T23:16:34.533-07:00On the LCL example, I'm wondering how you or y...On the LCL example, I'm wondering how you or your operators keep track of where the car has been [spotted], and where it is going?Mark Ziebellnoreply@blogger.com
