Reading this reply gave me an aneurysm. I took the liberty of punctuating it properly... Ok here goes.. being a former CSX engineer for 14 years, you may not like it, but you're being told to do something by the dispatcher. Don’t argue with him. Notify your local chairman and see if there is a claim for it. You can even contact the trainmaster. He is right in that if it’s safe for the conductor, it’s safe for us. We are no better and are all the same. Something else is going on that we are missing here. You can tell by the dispatcher's tone. It sounds like he could have been trying to use a calendar day to drag ass and he got caught. The dispatcher was wrong in that no the conductor cannot do a calendar day unless he is a cut back engineer. But if the conductor was back there, I think we could have worked something out. That being said, if this dispatcher was just being a dick, then, there are other ways of handling it. When I returned to the head end 4 hours later, I would be ready to go.

from someone who ran trains up there that is bullshit. the walk from CP 10 sucks they were on the middle siding it sounds. hate that walk with a main on both sides.

As a retired Carmen with over 41 years of service with Chessie then CSX I have walked many trains and I don't feel the least bit of sympathy for him 😂😂
It’s not the walking, it’s the only legal way to do it is to secure the train, engineer cannot leave the head end without the train secure. The whole process would end up taking hours.
He’s just being lazy. I understand some areas have either bad walking conditions, or almost zero walk way at all. But still you gotta just do it. If you don’t suck it up and do it, then the longer it will take to get home. I’ve walked my train 6 miles before (3 miles both ways) in an area that had no walk way at all. And the tracks were elevated on their own hill. You ha about a foot or so of ballast on the outside of the ties, then it was about a 45 degree or steeper drop than went down about 12 feet. And the stones kept sliding out from under me. That absolutely sucked. But I still did it. I complained a lot, but I did it. And me and my engineer had a good time laughing about it in hindsight when I made it up to the engine. One time I even had to walk 12 miles! It was another 3 mile train, and we went I the emergency twice within the same interlocking lol. Wasn’t even the trains fault. It was PTC which is always acting up. So I knew there was nothing wrong with it, nothing to find and fix hopefully a few cars back, no I had to walk the whole thing for no reason, simply because of a technicality in the rule book. The Train dumped so I walked 3 miles to the real, and 3 miles to the head end. We pull ahead and it dumps again. So I repeat the process. …needless to say we outlawed that day and didn’t make it to our destination lol. …That really should be an exception to the rule though: that if Ptc dumps the train while in an interlocking (AND IT WASN’T ANY FAULT OF OUR OWN! We weren’t about to run a red. We had a good signal. It just freaked out and dumped us) that you don’t have to walk it. That was ridiculous

first and foremost which kenwood VHF Radio model is that and second off it seems to me that this employee was to lazy to leave the cab and walk 101 cars plus the employee he was arguing with was offering to get somone to come out and drive him back to the car or DPU they are inspecting
No just to be fair he offered to see if a yard van was available he didn’t say there was one he said he would check nobody in there right mind should be bitching if you actually had a ride
With all due respect this is ridiculous. I don't know the territory so if there is a truly legitimate reason that it's unsafe then he has an argument. If he is just pulling the "safety card" out hoping to get out of doing his job then I have an issue. Heck, it sounds like a great overtime move to me to go for a hike back, do the inspection (maybe bad order it if he finds a non-complying condition - that'll really wind the managers/dispatchers up), and then walk back to the headend. As a note, I was an engineer for just under 43 years working grade territory. I NEVER had an issue walking back to the DP units if necessary. In fact I did not want a conductor back there screwing with them; they were MY engines and I would take care of them myself.

I can generally agree with that, but walking a mile or more along a train isn't like walking on a nice trail or concrete sidewalk. Especially if there is a culvert or bridge without a walkway involved.
Walk 6 miles in the pitch dark in the rain on a slippery 45 degree slope with other trains passing by inches away you and you're one wrong step from injury with no one around to help and tell me why someone might be hesitant to walk both sides back and forth of a train over a mile long.
