The Equipment per FRA rules can also have a 5 mph error due to speedometer calibration, wheel trueing etc. So a max allowable error if combined is 10 mph. If I have Roadforeman riding with me , his face will begin to scowl at 2 mph over speed and by 4 mph over he starts to put info into his PDA, anymore than 5 mph and I would probably put on a unpaid mini vacation of about 15 to 30 days. If there is no Roadforeman my transgressions would be exposed once the black box is downloaded(once a week) The Bus driver or Truck driver have no penalty system, infact they get attaboys from their boss for speeding as long as it does not effect the company insurance by means of tickets. |

Thanks for making the fact of DEFINITE enforcement crystal clear. There is no comparing this kind of certain enforcement with the random enforcement on the roads.How far can an engineer speed above his current speed code under speed control? |

You keep on relying on an analogy that doesn't hold, and you think that by repeating it, the disanalogy goes away. |

But the engineer cannot rely on the speedometer error. What if the error is the other way? What if when tested there is no speedometer error, but it is right on the money.When your job specifies to operate at 79 miles per hour, you do not intentionally operate at 80 miles per hour. It may get up there on a down grade, but the engineer *knows* that that down grade is there, and will have cut back power at the crest of the hill. Fuel efficiencies also come into play these days. The superintendent is going to be looking at his pocketbook more than his timetable these days. ROAR |

If there is no Roadforeman my transgressions would be exposed once the black box is downloaded(once a week) The engineer who overspeeds by 10 mph will have much explaining to do, and his violation is certain to be discovered. An plus, if your control as an engineer is off by 10 mph, that's failing to effectively distinguish between two speed codes, e.g., on LIRR. |

Reading comprehension for the win....he said "If I have Roadforeman"This is why I questioned your reading comprehension. Read the rest of the statement, which I quoted. how did you ever pass the 2nd grade? Well, Terrapin Station, it would be unfair to your fellow second graders for me to tell you how to do this, but if you study harder, play better with others, and read entire statements carefully, maybe you will finally be able to make it to 3rd grade. With that in mind, re-read the entire statement quoted: If I have Roadforeman riding with me , his face will begin to scowl at 2 mph over speed and by 4 mph over he starts to put info into his PDA, anymore than 5 mph and I would probably put on a unpaid mini vacation of about 15 to 30 days. If there is no Roadforeman my transgressions would be exposed once the black box is downloaded(once a week) Now think hard about what that means, and especially about the emphasized part, which you have so far ignored. With the help of a tutor, you should be reading at a fourth grade level soon, if you put in the time and effort. Best of luck! |
