I got called for rhe S LPCLBE. On duty time was 9 pm. It was over 8500 feet and we had head end power only, so we were limited to 55 MPH. We got to East Barstow at 6 am. They told us that our outbound would meet us there. It took them an hour to get there. I had the van dorp me off at the hotel. I had a good breakfast when I got to the jotel. I saw an engineer that Iknow and he said, "Back on the west end again?" Yes, I'm in purgatory," I said. He laughed. I had a good sleep. I slept about 9 hours and I got called for the H BARTUL. The yard crew was putting it together. The tranmaster told us tht our train was toghether and it was on the "Auxillary Lead," but someone told us over the radio that it was "under the bridge." We found out train. When we went to the ehad end we watited for the crew to come down but no one came down. We entered the cab and there wa sno one there. Our train was tied down. I only had to untie two brakes. Our train had 4 motors on the head end. The sun was up by the time we gotto Needles. They told us to take it to put our train into Yard Two and tie it down. We were lined into Yard 2 but our train was too long to fit in there, so they told us to foul the switch n the east end and leave the roundhouse in the clear. So, we did that. I only had to tie one brake. The van came out to pick us up. I don't know why but lately they haven't been callling our outbound crews at Barstow our Needles. They have us wait for the crew to come on duty, or tie our train down.
