First off there are no dates.  One problem with TO(Train Order) operations and the biggest hazard was complacently.  Often the same crews ran the same district each day and did the same thing every day.  The train dispatcher was as much in the wrong as they would put out the same order every day often with the same number and address or the train crew would look in registers and look only for the train id and not the dates trying to move too fast KILLS.  You had to check every detail.
The first order is a simple right over and wait order and basically sets up a schedule for extra trains.
The second order is a meet order and until the 4000 identified the 5000 at Clearmont the 4000 could not move.
What was needed was a order annulling the  the meet in order for the third order to be any good.
36 years a train dispatcher from train orders thru track warrants and then computer track warrants plus Rule 251 and CTC

Subject: [CBQ] Train orders

 

While we are on the subject of train orders, here is a scenario for you that actually occurred.

The CB&Q stations from west to east: Sheridan, Dutch, Ulm, Clearmont, Kendrick, Lariat, Echeta, Felix, Oriva, Gillette.

Extra 4000 East picked up the following orders. Actual wording is shortened for brevety but what is needed is shown. Some punctuation was added for the non-railroaders reading this...

To C&E Extra 4000 East at Sheridan.
Extra 5000 West has right over Extra 4000 East Gillette to Ulm.
Extra 5000 West wait at Echeta until 105pm, Lariat 120pm, Kendrick 145pm, Clearmont 205pm, for Extra 4000 East.
Complete 830am, Dispatcher DAS

To C&E Extra 4000 East at Dutch.
Extra 4000 East take siding meet Extra 5000 West at Clearmont.
Complete 1050am, Dispatcher DAS

Extra 4000 East arrived at Clearmont at 155pm and picked up this last order from the siding when passing the depot...

To C&E Extra 4000 East at Clearmont.
Extra 5000 West wait at Echeta until 155pm, Lariat until 210pm, Kendrick 235pm, Clearmont 255pm, for Extra 4000 East.
Complete 920am, Dispatcher DAS

Now if you are the crew on X4000E where can you go to meet the X5000W?

Any guesses as to what the crew actually did?
