As to pay rates we both are remiss in not mentioning the 3rd class of frt pay. The road switcher rate which was the highest rate and one that didn't come along until (?) well trying to find that in the files.

Don't know if you had any road switchers out your way. There was a25 mile round trip limit on them and the crew could run in and out of origin terminal as many times as needed w/o penalty.

As to the files if I hit the lottery I would do just as you describe.

Leo...I very much envy and admire your devotion to duty  ie   keeping a "real job" and perusing those old files...Were they in my  possesion I would closet myself and only emerge from devouring them for reason of "intake and output"
 
I'm looking forward to the products of your efforts.
 
If all goes as planned I'll be attending the Mendota meet this fall...
 
Note to Phil W. if he reads this...My understanding is that the Fall meet is Nov 2nd..that's a Saturday..I believe that would be the day (evening) that the FRIENDS OF THE ROCK ISLAND meet at BI..If that's the case I may stay over and go to BI after the BRHS ends for the FRIENDS meeting..

Pete I too had never heard or seen any thing called "roustabout rate of pay" until I read this 1890s file. I am making the assumption that since the crew was formally asking for wayfrt rate(local rate) that  roustabout was equivalent to thru frt rate or maybe between the two.
 
Yes when I was in service there were two rates of pay,thru frt and local rate which we all commonly referred to as wayfreight rate. The 3 s/o or p/us were the deciding factor. The difference was minimal. But I hope in the future the BRHS members will read an article in the Bulletin wherein a .39/day rate of pay difference increase was important enough to have a series of claims be appealed to abritration. That claim became the basis of a large file and that generated the article about a little remembered aspect of Q business on a certain line segment.
 
Something along the lines of for lack of.........................
 
As to the "jacket" you would have to leave it with me on a summer loan until the fall meet as the current plan is do a "shoot" this spring or summer. Nothing at the spring meet.
