[CBQ] Re: Abbreviation quiz

Abbreviation quiz:

I did not see this until several others had already posted answers but I'll 
pretend I didn't see those. Here's what I remember without looking in any 
reference material:
 

a/c?account
A1
AFE?Authority For Expenditure (prepared many of these on the CNW)
B/A?Billed At (location)
BK?Brakeman (a guess)
BO?Bad Order (easy; anyone that didn't know this one?)
Bsk
Bx?Box (car)
C&E?Conductor & Engineer
jct?junction
Jt?Joint
K
Ld?Load (-ed car)
LFVC?Loaded Full Visible Capacity
MT?Empty (car)
NOIBN
Ntfy?Notify
O
OS?On Station or On Sheet (time by a location)
P.H.P.?Packing House Products (meat, etc.)
RIP?Repair In Place (according to magazine articles; I'm dubious)
Rpt?Repeat
Sk?Stock (car)
W&F
W/C?Waycar
WB?Waybill
WW&IB-Western Weighing & Inspection Bureau

This was fun!

No, I was not an agent or clerk on the railroad; engineering dept. on Up and 
CNW, then TYE on CNW, BN, and BNSF.
