A MESSAGE IN THE
PUBLIC INTEREST
about repeal of the 1913
Excess Freight Train Crew Law
being considered by the
1965 Legislature.
ANSWER:
i
f
Because of Oregon's antiquated
Excess Freight Train Crew Law!
W& HAVB TO TAK OtJ Vrs.
A FIKBMASJAAJO AtJ. f
V EXTRA BRAKEMAVf J 7 ! .
&L STATB THAT'S JJS
Let Oregon compete...
Let's get back on the track!
This 1913 law dictates that a fireman
must ride in a freight locomotive with two
other men-the engineer and head brake
man, but modern diosel engines have no
fires for the fireman to tend.
Safety First: National
, Arbitration Board found
Fireman not required
The National Arbitration Board, estab
lished by Congress, found that firemen
are not necessary on diesol freight trains
from the standpoint of either work load or
safety. The Board found that the head
brakeman, who also rides in the freight
train cab with the engineer, performs the
lookout function and can stop the train
in an emergency.
Collective bargaining agreements
should settle disputes
In recent months agreements have been
reached between railroad management
and labor pursuant to the National Arbi
tration Award. This is how such issues
should be settled, yet the old Oregon law
prevents such settlement in our state.
The locomotive engineers union and
the trainmen's union just withdrew their
opposition to repeal of crew laws in the
eastern states. These unions did so after
reaching agreements with 23 eastern rail
roads. Do you suppose those unions would
have agreed to anything other than oafo
working conditions? Of course nott
Oregon should get in step
with the nation
In 45 states, freight trains operate with
just two men in the locomotive. When
theso trains reach the Oregon border, two
extra men get aboard. One extra man ridefl
in the locomotive; the oilier extra man
rides in the caboose. This old law is at
handicap to Oregon's economy a handi
cap that industry wants to remove-a han
dicap tluit can be removed by our 1965
Legislature.
Job security will be protected
The railroads of Oregon have given their
assurance that if the excess freight crew
law is repealed by the 1965 Legislature,
firemen and trainmen will have the follow
ing protection:
No fireman with more than two yearaf
seniority on January 25, 1964, and who
was regularly employed on that date, will
lose his employment relationship by rea
son of the repeal of this Act, except
through his own election.
No trainman regularly employed on
January 25, 1964, will lose his employment
relationship by reason of the repeal of thto
Act
Jobs of protected employees will ba
eliminated only as such employees real a
are promoted, retire, die or leave railroad
service for other reasons.
