Leo I forgot about all that stuff. I was working off the top of my head and it has been many a day since even thought about these things! From: "qutlx1@aol.com" <qutlx1@aol.com> To: cbq@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, December 14, 2011 8:22 PM Subject: [CBQ] Standard Waycar Equipment Don't forget the mandatory chain or steel cable for tieing things together
when they came undone. One never left the terminal w/o a chain,at lease one E
and a F knuckle,hammer,chisel,bailing wire,rags,packing hook,journal oil,journal
box coolant,spare air hoses,air hose wrench, all the extra flagging
equip.,markers and their fuel,etc,broom,mop,a full tank of oil or coal for the
stove,forms in the desk,ice in the ice box. In winter it was imperitive to put a
soup can of water on the stove to act as a humidifier.It also was smart to tape
the leading door jam with tape or wet paper towels. Yes they worked.
If these things weren't on the car at the terminal in pool waycar days you
went to the supply point and the carman(helper) there would bring them to you.
In assigned waycar days it's my understanding it was the rear brakemans job to
find these items and secure them.
As to system map if you call a pinup a map then that was what you had one.
Don't ever recall a w/c with a true company issued map on the wall.
