Posted by randyo on Wed Sep 5 14:33:28 2007, in response to Re: Brake Valve portion Re: LIRR MP-54 #1149 and its ME-23 brake valve, posted by SelkirkTMO on Mon Sep 3 20:23:26 2007. Actually, when I was a M/M I did qualify on miscellaneous equipment which back in 1969 not only included diesels but also the SBK steeplecab electrics and due to their operational similarity also the 5000 even though I never set foot in the 5000 itself. There was also a group of new Yd M/M who were qualified to operate shop transfers over the road prior to becoming fully raod qualified. Along with this pseudo road qualification was a cursory qualification on Lo-Vs. Our little group was referred to as "Redmond's Raiders" after the midnight IND desk trainmaster John Redmond who requested additional personnel to handle shop transfers. |
