Common use of Note 2 Clause in Contracts

Note 2. In the instance of a crew that departs from their terminal and breaks down, and they return to their terminal for a relief engine with which the trip is completed: It is agreed that, in such instances, if the distance from terminal to point of breakdown is 25 miles or less, will be paid on continuous time basis, i.e., actual mileage (with a minimum of a basic day mileage in the class of service) and overtime, if any, computed from the time first required to report at the initial terminal until relieved at the final terminal; if the distance is more than 25 miles, will be paid a minimum of a basic day for service from terminal to breakdown point and return and upon leaving the terminal on a second trip a pew day or trip will begin. This being an emergency, the crew may be used for the second trip without penalty payment to other employees for being runaround. If any member of the crew remains at the breakdown point instead of accompanying the conductor to the terminal for another engine, such employee will be paid on the same basis as though he had returned to the terminal. . This shall not apply if the breakdown occurs near the final termmal of the trip, making it necessary that a relief engine be secured from the final terminal.
