I got called for the "V CLOBAR," a vehicle train going from Clovis, New Mexico to Barstow. The workorder said that we were to set out our whole train in Barstow. The 2 motors were to stay there, and about half of the train was going to San Diego and the other half would go to San Bernadino. We figured we wud take it into the Receiving Yard, tie it down, and take the power to the house. We had been on duty 45 minutes when we departed. It was a good trip, though they stopped us a total of five times. When e got to Barstow they said to tie it down on I3.They would resymbol it and it would go on, probably to San Bernadino. I only had to tie one handbrake. It was still early when we go in, around 3. I got something to eat, watched TV and went to bed early. I slept about 10 hours! I got a call at 5 am for the "Q LACLPK," which goes from Los Angeles to Logistic Park, Kansas. My engineer and I weren't even on duty when it pulled up to the steps. We headed up any ay, and we were on duty by the time we got on board. It was a good train, with 3 motors on the head ed, 75 cars, weighing in at 5,379 tons and was 7,428 feet long. We had the 0/40 throttle restriction, but my engineer let TO run it and it and it pretty good. They took us out through the I Yard, and then onto the main. They only stopped us 3 times. Our trip was 5 and half hours. I was ready to do the roll by when someone in mechanical called the outbound and told them that there was an open container. They said to pull it p to East Needles and they would both close it and inspect the whole train for any other open containers. I rolled the train by and the open container was 25 cars back, and it was an upper container. I reported this to them. Well, new track has been laid up to MP 586.5. Also, those 2 platforms that broke off from a five packer are still on the ground at 593.8.I'm supposed to go out tomorrow around noon. I'm looking forward to a good night's sleep, enjoying my morning coffee, and then getting my call. But then, someone could lay off because they want to watch the world series, so I could go out earlier. I have attached a picture of our leader, the 6693.
