Gentlemen:
This refers to our discussions regarding a trainer (coach) allowance for locomotive engineers.
It is agreed that engineers will be paid a frozen allowance of $15 for each tour of duty that they are instructed to train other employees in the carrier's engineer training program. This allowance is in lieu of any other payment under any other agreements or practice.
Among other things, such training shall encompass all of the duties and responsibilities of an engineer for the safe and efficient operation of the train including train handling, locomotive preparation, rules compliance, territory familiarization, communications and trouble shooting. The engineer trainer (coach) shall maintain his/her authority and responsibility as the locomotive engineer of the train and will make the required reports of those under his direction.
This agreement shall become effective January 1, 1999.
Very truly yours,
I agree:
