TIME TABLES

Trains operating over another railroad will be subject to rules, special instructions and timetables of that railroad.

Between Burt (Galion) and Marion, movement of trains will be under the direction of the Erie Railroad Co. The employees of either company will be governed by the rules, special instructions and time tables of their respective companies.

Between Cold Springs and Second Street (Dayton), movement of trains will be under the direction of the CCC&StL.R’y. (NYC R. R. Co. Lessee). The employees of either company will be governed by the rules, special instructions and time tables of their respective companies, insofar as they do not conflict with the following special instructions:

1.

Movement of trains with or against current of traffic between Drawbridge and Second Street may be made on signal indication and at restricted speed.

2.

Interlocking signals at Cold Springs, Osborn, Tates Point and Drawbridge will be used as Manual Block Signals for movements against current of traffic.

3.

Manual block system will be used for movements against current of traffic between Cold Springs and Draw Bridge.

Rule 317-A and first paragraph of Rule M 331 for absolute block for opposing and following movements govern the movement of passenger trains.

Rule 317-B and second paragraph of Rule M 331 for absolute block for opposing movements and permissive block for following movements, govern the movement of trains other than passenger trains.

4.

Eastbound trains starting from Dayton Yard during hours signalman is not on duty, must receive Clearance Form A from signalman at Tates Point.

5.

For delivery of train orders at Cold Springs, Osborn, Tates Point and Drawbridge, a signalman having orders for delivery to a train will, in addition to the "Stop" indication of the home (or dwarf) signal, display at the interlocking station and in the direction of the approaching train, a yellow flag or light by day and a yellow light by

night, which indication the engineman must acknowledge by signal 14 (g). After signal has been acknowledged, if the orders restrict the superiority of the train at that station, the home (or dwarf) signal must remain at "Stop" until the orders have been delivered; if the orders do not restrict the superiority of the train at that station, the signalman will then display the interlocking signal to give the proper "proceed" indication and the train may then proceed to the interlocking station, but not beyond without receiving train orders and/or Clearance Form A. Enginemen may sign "31" Train Orders when so desired.

6.

When trainmen and yardmen request permission to enter the main track or cross from one main track to another, or request to make any other main track move, only a qualified conductor or engineman must make such request to the Signalman or Train Dispatcher.

7.

Unless otherwise provided, in automatic block system territory, yard engines or trains before entering main track or crossing from one main to another, must obtain permission from the Signalman or Train Dispatcher. This permission must not be given unless it is known that the movement of an approaching train will not be affected. This will not relieve employees in train service from the duty of promptly and properly protecting their train. At non-bolt-locked switches, trainmen will operate the switch and wait five minutes at the switch before making engine or train movement, unless it is known that the movement of an approaching train will not be affected.

Between Glen Echo and Cold Springs, CCC&StL R’ys trains will use Erie Railroad, the movement of which will be under the direction of the Erie Railroad. Erie Railroad time table and Train Dispatcher’s Block System Rules effective May 1st, 1936, will govern.

Between Second St. and Union Depot, Dayton, D&U R’y. rules and time table will govern.

SIGNS. Additional to Rule 6.

D. Day Train order office.

N. Day and night train order office.

Conditional stops as follows:

t No. 7 will stop at Barberton to let off paying passengers from Youngstown and points east and receive paying passengers for Mansfield and points west.

Trains scheduled to make flag stop at stations where no employe is on duty to give the necessary signal, will approach such points prepared to stop and will come to a full stop if there are any persons on the platform.

MARKERS

Rule D-19 is amplified as follows: Yellow or green lights to the front and side and red lights to the rear must be displayed before a train fouls the main track on which the current of traffic is in the direction the train is moving.

CLASSIFICATION SIGNALS

The display of two white flags and two white lights as required under Operating Rule 21, will be omitted in single track territory where no trains are scheduled, and in double or multiple track territory.

HIGHWAY CROSSING LIGHTS

Mansfield

To avoid blocking Bowman St. crossing Mansfield, by eastbound freight trains, an indicator located just west of Bowman St. will govern as follows:

When no light is showing, freight trains will stop west of Bowman St. and report by telephone to Operator at MD Tower for instructions.

When yellow light is displayed, freight trains may pass over Bowman St. and proceed in accordance with automatic block signal indication.

Patterson Field, Osborn

Track leading to Patterson Field, M. P. 380.25 two miles west of Osborn, protected by two traffic lights, over crossing of State Route No. 4.

Normal indication of lights is green for highway traffic and red for trains or engines approaching from either direction.

Trains or engines required to cross the highway in either direction will come to full stop before crossing and operate switch located in box on pole on the approach side of highway, to cause lights to display stop signal for highway traffic in both directions. When highway traffic has come to a stop, trains or engines will proceed over highway and stop when rear of train or engine has cleared the highway. Then operate switch located in box on pole on leaving side of the highway to restore lights to display normal indications.

Light switches are protected by boxes on poles, locked with combination Erie and CCC&StL loacks. After using either switch, the box housing must be closed and locked.

SUPERIORITY OF TRAINS

Eastward trains are superior to westward trains of the same class.

Trains operating in Automatic Block Signal Districts governed by Telephone Train Order Signals or "Take Siding" Signals may run with the current of traffic, upon signal indication, which signal indication supersedes Time-Table Superiority.

CLEARING OF TRAINS

First class trains will not leave Kent or Marion without train orders or a clearance Form A.

Westward Second Sub-Division trains will not leave Marion or Glen Echo without train orders and clearance Form A and in addition, Form B when required.

Eastward Second Sub-Division trains will not leave Cold Springs without train orders and clearance Form A and in addition, Form B when required.

SPRING SWITCHES

East end eastward passing siding Polk.

West end westward passing siding Polk.

East end eastward passing siding Mansfield.

West end westward passing siding Martel.

Pull-out connecting C&E lead with westward main track, west end Marion yard.

Switches equipped with spring stand set normal for main track movements. Trains or engines may pull out of these sidings to main track without operating switches by hand.

Extreme care must be taken to prevent back-up movements, slack running out of trains, or taking slack over spring switches, before forward movement is complete. If necessary to make such movements, switches must be operated by hand.

When switching over these switches, they must be hand operated.

Spring switches are protected by distant signals for trains operating against current of traffic, signals located as follows:

Polk

4800 ft. East of east end eastward passing siding.

Polk

4600 ft. West of west end westward passing siding.

Mansfield

800 ft. East of east end eastward passing siding.

Martel

1250 ft. West of west end westward passing siding.

Marion Yard

1500 ft. West of pull-out switch connecting C&E Lead to westward main track.

Indications as follows:

Green--Proceed over spring switch.

Yellow--Proceed to point of switch and make sure points are properly set before proceeding. If found out of order, use hand throw switch and restore to normal position after using, immediately reporting condition to the Superintendent.

Switches at east end eastward passing siding and west end westward passing siding, Polk, equiped with switch signals located between tracks, indications as follows:

Green--Switch points properly lined for main track movement, proceed over spring switch in accordance with special instructions.

Red--Switch points not properly lined for main track movement. Trains moving on main track, stop and examine switch points, use hand throw to correct alignment of switch, if necessary, and proceed only when switch is properly secured, reporting any improper condition immediately to Superintendent. Trains moving from siding must reverse switch by hand before movement is made and restore to normal position after entire train has passed.

ELECTRIC SWITCH LOCKS

Scioto

Westward track, west switch of main track crossover, east switch of crossover leading to westward siding and west switch of westward passing siding.

Patterson Field, Fairborn

Westward track, west switch of main track crossover and entrance switch to Patterson Field, M. P. 380.25, about two miles west of Osborn.

1.

No attempt shall be made to open any switch electrically locked unless the indicator adjacent to switch displays "CLEAR."

2.

Trains desiring to use either switch must first secure permission from the Train Dispatcher or Operator.

3.

Indicator with switch key operated controller is provided at each location.

4.

When indicator shows "CLEAR," the switch locks may be removed from the latches and after the signals have assumed the "STOP AND PROCEED" position, the switches may be operated in the usual manner.

5.

The switch lock is removed or applied by depressing small pedal on top of electric lock. The switch stand handle is then released by stepping on lower pedal.

6.

When indicator shows "STOP" and permission has been secured, with approach circuit occupied by a train, remove padlock from the electric lock, insert switch key in the switch key operated controller and turn key to right as far as possible, remove key and after a four (4) minute time interval has elapsed, the indicator will show "CLEAR" and the switch may be operated as in paragraph 4.

7.

When switching moves require the use of either switch more than once, the switch padlock should not be replaced in the electric lock until all moves are completed, or train is in clear and switches lined for main track, to allow signals to display "APPROACH" or "PROCEED" indication.

8.

Short track circuits extend a distance of approximately 100 feet either side of each switch, which are for the purpose of releasing the electric locks automatically when part of train has been left on approach section and must be occupied by engine or cars to effect release.

REMOTE CONTROL SWITCHES AND SIGNALS

Polk

Entrance to eastward and westward sidings equipped with power operated switches and signals governing operation controlled by Train Dispatcher at Marion.

1.

Trains or engines must not enter or foul main track, nor re-enter such track after having cleared it without proper indication of the governing signal and permission of Train Dispatcher. Protection must then be provided in accordance with Rule 99 of Rules of Operating Department.

2.

When switching movements are to be made over switches equipped with power operated switch machines, an understanding must be had with Train Dispatcher. When necessary to operate a power operated switch by hand, special instructions posted at location will be followed.

3.

When a train is delayed after a "PROCEED" signal has been displayed, Train Dispatcher must be notified promptly as to cause and probable duration of delay.

4.

When a train is stopped by a "STOP" signal, a member of crew will immediately communicate with Train Dispatcher.

5.

A train or engine must not make a reverse movement after accepting a CONTROLLED signal for straight-away movement, except under flag protection or when movements are being made in accordance with paragraph 1.

6.

Trains stopped or delayed after passing distant signal displaying "CLEAR" indication, must approach CONTROLLED signal expecting to find that signal displaying its most restrictive indication.

7.

Both sidings are track circuited and entrance with current of traffic protected by home signals. Trains receiving indication Rule 286, Fig. A, on home signal will expect to find siding clear to clearance post.

8.

A white light known as "Maintainer’s Call Signal" is located on instrument housing near power operated switches. Train crews working in vicinity observing signal lighted will immediately call Train Dispatcher or Operator as signal may also be used for this purpose.

Martel--Cold Springs

Entrance to eastward siding at both points equipped with power operated switches and signals governing operation controlled by signalman at Martel and Cold Springs.

Remote controlled switches are interlocking and movements are governed by rule pertaining thereto. Instructions for manual operations are posted in telephone box.

When a train is stopped by a "STOP" signal, member of the crew will immediately communicate with the signalman. In event remote controlled switch fails, upon instructions of the signalman, the switch must, regardless of position of switch points, be cranked to desired position. If after cranking switch machine the signal does not indicate proceed, switch must not be used in facing direction without spiking or blocking switch points.

Whenever it becomes necessary to operate remote control switch by hand upon instructions from the control operator, the first trainman handling the switch must know that other members of the crew responsible for restoring the switch to normal position are fully informed of the situation. When the switch has been restored to normal the control operator must be notified.

GRADE CROSSINGS

Except where interlocking signals are in operation, trains and engines must come to a full stop not less than 200 nor more than 800 feet from railroad crossing at grade.

Dayton

B. & O. R. R. with Freight House track, Cooper St., electrically locked signals, manually controlled upon telephone authority of Chief Train Dispatcher, B. & O. R. R. Color light indications both day and night, Red--stop, Yellow--proceed.

CROSSOVER MOVEMENTS

When necessary to enter upon main tracks or cross over from one main track to another, permission will first be obtained, except in Marion Yard and at KX crossover and at Crain Ave., Kent yard.

This does not relieve enginemen and trainmen from protecting the movements as per Rule 99.

Permission to use main tracks or crossovers operated by interlocking plants will be given by signal indications.

When Telephone Train Order Signals are set at 45 degrees above horizontal or yellow light, indicating that the train should take siding and siding cannot be used making it necessary to back the train over to the opposite track, this signal may be passed without first bringing the train to a stop and may proceed at restricted speed until the rear end of train clears the crossover. After permission has been received from the Train Dispatcher or Signalman in charge, the train may back over to the opposite track protecting the movement as prescribed by Rule 99.

MISCELLANEOUS

When a car is set out of a train at any point on account of a hot journal, trainmen will extinguish fire before leaving the car.

WIRE CLEARANCES

The clear space between the lowest signal line conductor and the surface of the track rails at the follow locations is less than 27 feet. Employees must not ride on top of freight cars at these locations.

AUTOMATIC TRAIN CONTROL

Instructions For Enginemen With Engines Equiped With Automatic Train Control Over Districts Not Equiped

Starting Up.

To latch up Actuator and Brake Valve Rotary; First, Headlight Generator must be running; Second, main reservoir must be pumped up; Third, reset button must be depressed for two seconds; Fourth, brake valve handle must be moved to full service position, thus latching up handle to rotary valve.

Actuator

The Actuator is controlled automatically. The rotary in the brake valve moves to service position only when an automatic application is received, but the brake handle does not move. The engineman, however, can manually go from service to emergency. When an automatic application has been received, the train will come to a stop. It will then be necessary for the Engineer to get down from the engine and press the reset button located on the right-hand side of tender frame, for two seconds, and release. This will reset the system and indicator on top of actuator will again go to the reset position, arrow pointing to "R".

It is then possible for the Engineer to relatch the brake valve handle with the rotary valve by moving the brake valve handle to the service position which is the relatching position. He can then put the brake valve in any position desired.

Broken Air Pipes

If pipe on actuator cylinder is broken or leaking, plug it. It will then be necessary to break seal and raise seal cock handle to cut-out position.

When air pipe to whistle valve breaks, same should be plugged, and train control not cut out.

Acknowledging Contactor

When required to acknowledge, acknowledger handle must be pulled down before passing a signal displaying other than ’PROCEED.’ If held down more than fifteen seconds, an automatic application will result.

Acknowledger handle must be released when whistle stops blowing or inductor has been passed.

Failure of acknowledging whistle to blow while acknowledging should be reported on Form 5322-A.

Enginemen must not acknowledge until after signal indication has been observed and is being obeyed.

Control Cut-Out Cock

This is connected under left hand actuator cylinder and is only to be used in case of failure of apparatus to admit air to left hand actuator cylinder. This cuts in train control when in the horizontal position of handle. To cut out control, raise handle.

Light Defect

With train control in service and a short occurs on the light circuit it causes a drop in voltage until fuse on light circuit is blown, which, as a rule, will cause an application of the brakes. If such occurs, Enginemen will push reset button, which will develop the condition of generator and automatic stop circuit, and if both prove to be in working condition, Engineman will proceed without cutting out automatic train control.

Defects or Failure of Apparatus

These shall be reported on regular Engineer’s defect Form 5322 A. Improper applications at clear signals or other points should be reported at first telegraph office.

Open Inductors

Passenger engines are now operating over the Western District in through line passenger service with the automatic train control cut in.

Open inductors are now in service on engine dispatching tracks at Salamance, Meadville, Brier Hill, Kent and Marion.

Enginemen are required to take brake application passing over the first of these inductors and to acknowledge passing over the other.
