Rules of the Way

By Eddie Exum

Cy Martin has come to our aid again with his camera, and captured a picture of our local PI Gang that works for Charles Cutrer

They are building new switches for the Bowl Capital Improvement Project for 1996 in Centennial Yard.

----------------

Due to ongoing projects north and south of here, we are still short on personnel. Our latest new hires haven't reported to us yet. We are expecting them any day.
----------------

With the personnel shortage we have, two gangs two gangs are working together in the picture. Not all of the members are present in the picture, but the list includes Gang 2202: Foreman Anthony Sasser, George Bell and David Marquez and contract Backhoe Operator James Adams.

Gang 2205 includes Foreman Donnie Holmes, Michael Noel, Jack Crane, Mark Parker and James Skinner.

These men just completed switch tie renewals on the East End Bowl Track Switches.

Thanks, Guys.

-----------------

We have received one of seven new Maintenance of Way trucks to replace older units in the Fort Worth/Dallas Area. They will be warmly welcomed by our gangs.
-----------------

We all await merger and union contract news. Our monthly safety meetings take place on September 26 and 27. We hope to have updates on these issues by then.

The holiday season is just around the corner. Halloween will be here before we know it. Better lock those doors.

Enjoy the cooler weather. All of us in Maintenance of Way are.
