Since CIYd had R-42s from just about all the lines with the exception of the Queens IND, whatever OK cars the Yardmaster had were used to make service regardless of signage. One SundayI was working as the West End T/D and due to an impending visit from Ronan to 57/6, a CLEAN train of R-42s properly signed for the B was requested for a particular interval lvg Stl. I advised the Yd/Mast at CIY and was extremely surprised when a train of R-42s showed up that looked like it had been dragged through CI Creek instead of operating over it. I Immediately phoned the Yd Mast who said that was the only train of R-42s he had available. I couldn’t figure out why it couldn’t have been sent through the wash but that was what I got and I sent it. The T/D at 57/6 phoned me to find out why such a cruddy excuse for train was sent there considering it was a special occasion and I told him about the Yd/Mast’s response. All he said was that Joe Kilkenny (the Chief of Operations who was also there) will be very disappointed. I never did find out what the eventual consequences were of what happened. |
