[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by 1435mm It depends upon the pre-existing agreement between the two railways. If the locomotive cannot be moved without repairs (e.g., spun traction motor support bearing, seized pinion, major damage to one or both bogies), the railway on which the mishap occurred will make sufficient repairs to make the locomotive safe to move dead-in-tow to the home carrier or a designated contract repair shop. Under most agreements, light repairs are made by the railway on which the locomotive fails and billed to the home road, and locomotives requiring heavy repairs are dispatched to the home road or to a designated contract shop. [/quote] Here we refer to dead in tow as DOL, Dead Off Line. However, if a unit will run and the weather is not below freezing we can send them Dead--Good. [;)]
