I could see the point of remote control, if it was used by a trainman at the lead end of a cut while shoving to couple up. The engineer would then stay in his cab and take control when the engine is in the lead. BUT THAT AIN'T HOW THEY DO IT - not here anyway. the guy with the beltpack could be anywhere! He can't even see as good as the engineer while shoving - let alone feel how the cut is handling. The yard sure is getting noisy with all the bangin around - and almost every day a busted coupler too boot. But the big thing I don't understand is why the UTU gets away with signing deals on another AFL union's turf. How come the AFL-CIO hasn't censured the UTU. Ain't that how the teamsters got kicked out - for doing such "Un-brotherly" stuff! I guess the union is out for its own self, just the same as the company is! We are the pawns!
