got called for the "Q CHISBD." On duty time was 7:35 pm. We had a setout in Barstow. We had 4 motors on the head end. It seemed like the 4th motor wasn't putting out any power. Once we got to Goffs things really slowed down. They kept stopping us. I know that they were single tracking because there was a Form B near Ash Hill. We got a "wheel slip alarm" once we got through Ludlow. My engineer stopped the train and went back to the 4th motor. There was a light indicating that the handbrake was on. He called Diesel Service. They said to set the brake and release it, and if that didn't work "cut the wire." My engineer set the brake and released it, but the light was still on. He wasn't sure which wire to cut. We asked for the "rapid responder." The dispatcher told us to swap with another train that was going by, then they told us to swap back. (That has never happened before). The rapid resonder showed up and fixed the problem. We made it asfar as Pisgah before we went DOL. Another crew came ut and tied out train down. We rode in the van with them to Batrstow. They had closed down breakfast at the hotel when i got there. The lady gave me some lefover scrambled eggs. I got checked into my room, showered, and went to Fiuzzy's for a burrito. I went to bed around noon and slept like a log. I got called at 10:30 pm for a stack train. It was a big train. It came in Main 1 because it needed to be refueled. Our paperwork said that we had 3 motors on the head end, 3 in the middle, and one on the rear. When My engineer got on the computer said that it had no engine on the rear. Our radio was making a lot of static, and we asked Diesel Service to fix it. A woman came out and swapped the radio out. Also, we had two people deadheading with us. My engineer pulled ahead and I spotted the DPs at the fuel pump. A van ran me to the head end. All of this took some time, then we pulled up to East Barstow and waited, then we pulled up to Dagget and waited, then we stopped at Newberry for an hour. THE TRAINS WERE NOT MOVING! We didn't know why. I called the dispatcher and she said that she was sending a relief crew. I guess they didn't think that we could make it to Needles in 5 hours. A van showed up with a relief crew. The engineer was my next door neighbor. My engineer, myself, the deadheads, and another crew crowded into the van-7 people including the driver. I had the luxury of the front seat. He took us to Needles. I am now on RISA after working for 7 days in a row. I can use a rest.
