TRAINMEN

    1250. Trainmen report to and receive instructions from the Trainmaster. While on trains, they are under the jurisdiction of the Conductor. While  at stations, they will comply with the instructions of Stationmaster, Station Agent or Yardmaster.

    While on engines, they will comply with instructions of the Engineer, and must keep a lookout in the direction the train is moving.

    1251. They are responsible for having adequate flagman's equipment (including back-up hose where required) available, in good order and ready for immediate use, and must see that markers are properly displayed. They must dispose of flagging equipment and markers at final terminals in accordance with current instructions.

    1252. When riding freight diesels, the forward trainmen will ride in the front cab, unless instructed by the Engineer or Conductor to ride elsewhere.

    1253. When it is necessary to cut train to permit highway traffic to cross, the crossing will be protected by a member of the crew when the train is being recoupled.
