QUOTE: Originally posted by bobwilcox Should the Railway Labor Act be repealed with labor agreements then falling under Taft Hartley? I think the modern economy would be just fine if the UTU negotiated with one carrier at a time and made it clear they were willing to operate jobs providing vital service (commuters, power plants,etc.)
QUOTE: Originally posted by drfizzix A certain shortline railroad in North Carolina uses one man crews regularly. There is a conductor on every crew, but he is usually in a company vehicle down the line getting switches lined for the approaching train and what not, rarely actually riding on the train.... [:(]

Why didn't they ask for national barganing on this as a part of their Section 6 notices? This was simpler whey the Eastern Railroads cut wages 10% and the trainmen responded by burning down Pittsburgh![:)] it was asked in the section six notices!!!! go to the utu web site and you will see that the railroads propose the ablilty to call conductors when they want too on what train they want too. the crew constist is the only thing protecting the conductors. if the court decides to deslove the crew contist the railroads will not ever have to call another conductor on a road train ever again!!!! The UTU better get ready for some very tough negotiations. If the carriers provide job protection to current trainmen Congress will not be on the UTUs side.
