Listers:
If Russ has provided the background for these consists, I missed the post.
Allow me to
shed some supporting information regarding the Orders. If this is duplicate
information, I
apologize. I did not see the post.
The source for the order is the Chicago 14th Street Coach Yard, Yardmasters
Clerk. He
prepared orders each day for the yard crews. The order of the consist (head end
or rear
end) on the sheet makes no difference to the yard crew. It does make a
difference when
the consist is set at the depot.
Some interpretations:
(off 30, or off 48) means that car wlll arrive that date in that train and
needs to be cut into
the consist on the sheet in the position indicated.
(yd) means the car is in the coach yard and needs to be pulled and added.
DH - deadhead to the station named.
The stations listed along the car name are the destination. In the case of 21,
some cars are
cut at St. Paul and only a few move to Minneapolis.
The clerk did not have the head end car info for 11 or 3, so it is not included
on the order.
The head end is added to those trains at the depot, so the yard does not need
to know.
Not all trains are listed. Some are not switched.
Russ, thanks for posting the consists. I hope this is a help to others.
Regards,
Ed DeRouin
