I cot called for the Q NWHSCO6. On duty time as 8:30 pm. It was over 8500 feet with head end power only- but with the new rule we could go 70. It was a 6 hour trip. When we got to Barstow they told us to take it into Main 4. We had to wait an hour for the outbound to come and relieve us because their conductor got a late call. I asked for terminal manager for one of the new flashlights and he gave me one. I got to the hotel in time for breakfast and I slept for 8 hours. I got up and got a burrito at Fuzzy's. I got callled for a stack train going home. On duty time was 7:30 pm. We got on at the steps. It was a prtty good trip, but when we got to Needles they told us that they weren't callling trains and they held us at West Needles for about an hour. They finally gave us the signal and told us to tie it down at East Needles. I only had to tie 3 brakes. I should go out this evening.
