I'm not saying there shouldn't be a separate board for 8 car trains, but all 8 car trains where the C/R operating position is 4 X 4 can use the same board. Only R-42s where the C/R operates 3 south and 5 north need a separate board. By the way, as I have mentioned before on many posts, when I was on the road anything less than a maximum length train needed no board since on a short train the C/R was expected to be able to observe that the entire train was in the station. The only place that trains of 8 X 60 footers needed a board was in the BMT Eastern where 8 cars was the maximum length. C/Rs were expected to be able to see that an 8 car or shorter train on a 10 car platform was completely in the station. |
