[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by edblysard</i> <br /> <br />Defect cards are filled out by car men/car inspectors while they check out a inbound train, and any cars with a defect, from broken safety appliances to defective wheels will get a card, noting what defect the inspector found, and the crew who switches the cars out will cut this car out to a rip track. <br />Rip means Repair In Place. <br />Cars marked to a rip track have minor repairs needed, brake shoes, bent grab irons, anything that can be repaired without major disassembly of the car. <br />Heavy wreck damage cars are held out and after the car owner is contacted, they may be repaired on property, or returned to the owner for disposition. <br />Stay Frosty, <br />Ed <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />What about the costs involved in repairing another "roads" eqiupment? Is there a bill send and paid or credit issued for part/supplies/labor etc?
