Gravel Trains will give preference to Freight trains, but Wood and Gravel trains will be considered of the same class, and the lightness, or proximity of a train to a Sid- ing, shall determine which train shall shunt. 31. When any of the Cars of a train are on FiFG) more 00 yards distant from any watering place, the train must be stopped, and the burning car cut out of the train, and every endeavor used to have the fire extinguished. If the flames have gone to any extent, cut a hole in the top of car, and extinguish through it, keeping sides and ends closed. The Engineman will give what water he can spare from his Tender. 32. No Engineman or Fireman shall move an Engine through any Switches, unless they are both present, or some qualified person to hold the Switches. Any Engine- man or Fireman, getting ofl" the platform of his Engine when it is in motion, and when he is alone, shall be fined. Enginemen running Engines ofi" Switches, while shunting or working at Stations or side tracks, will be suspended. 33.

Conductors of Passenger Trains will be at the Start- ing Station not later than half an hOUF before the departure of their Train, see that their Baggage and Brakesmen are on duty in proper condition, that the Cars have been carefully swept out and dusted, that, when necessary, the Stoves and Lamps have been lighted in proper tirae,.and from personal inspection, know that the Water Coolers are filled with good fresh drinking wr r, and that everything is right about their Train before stc f- ing; and that the passengers are properly accommodated. The Bell rope must be arranged perfectly before starting. 2. Each Conductor must be in possession of correct time, carefully regulated by the Standard Clock, and compare his time with that of his Engineman's before starting. 3. The Conductors are charged with the general ap- pearance of Trains, and the conduct of Baggagemen and Brakesmen. Each man must wear his badge when on the Train, and any misconduct of the men must be pre perly reported to the Superintendent. They will bo« that at each Station at which the Train stops, the name ;hat may have be at the Start- Ur before the Baggage and 1, that the Cars id, that, when een lighted in [on, know that drinking W£'r, lin before st: ■■h- accommodaoed. before starting. sion of correct rd Ciock, and neraan's before he general ap- ggagemon and )adge when on a must be pre rhcy will BOv. tops, the name CONDUCTORS. of the Station is announced in the insideof each P.,«..

At places where there may be no Switchn)." \ the CondnCtor win be held responsible for opening an.: lockiii^ the Switches. 8. One newsboy, and no more, is allowed to travel on each train — Conductors will be held responsible for seeing that these boys conduct themselves in a proper manner, and do not annoy or molest the passengers. 9. When two trains are amalgamated, the Conductor of the train, nearest whose train time the amalgamated train is run, shall be the Conductor in charge of the train, and all the men shall act under his orders—the other Conduc- tor will assist him if necessary. 10. He will notify the Engineman when to start; and will see that the Train is run as near the Time in Table as possible. 11.

Attention to this is of the utmost importance. 15. In the event of the Train being brought to a stand between two Stations, or outside of Semaphore, he must send Brakesmen, or other properly qualified persons, with the proper Signals, 800 yards from each end of the Train, to warn any approaching Train. 16. He will be held responsible for the proper coupling together of links and side chains of all the Cars in the Train, and for the proper connection of the rope attached to the bell in the cab of the Engine, and which must not be removed until the train is at a stand at the end of journey. 17. On arrival of the Train at the Terminus, he alone shall examine each Car to see that no Baggage or other articlefi are left by passengers; and, if any, have them taker, into the office and handed over to the Station Mas- ter ; this^is imperative, and any neglect will lead to punish- ment; he shall also see, (when the Stoves are lighted,) that no wood is left too near them, and that the Lamps rjtQ extinguished and the Windows closed. 18.

The Conductors shall examine the Way Bills for Sundry Cars before starting, to see that the freight is loaded so as to be left off properly. 21 They shall examine particularly the loading of all Platform Cars, to see that they are safe, and if they are not, must leave them to be reloaded. 22. The Conductors and Brakesmen are specially directed to allow no one to leap on or off their train while m motion, and refrain from doing so, as much as possible themselves; they must not uncouple any portion of it while in motion, with the view of dispensing with the Tail Rope or Shunting, and before proceeding to Tail Rope or Shunt any Cars into a Siding, they shall satisfy themselves that it is clear, or sufficient room for the Cars, and will prevent, as much as possible, the Cars being run in with too great an impetus. 23.

On a single track, Conductors of Wood and Gravel Trains cannot be too vigilant, in keeping clear of ordinary trains, and with this view, they shall inform themselves generally of Rules laid down for Conductors of other Trains: shall furnish themselves with a proper supply of Day and Night Signals, in efficient condition, and author- ised Time Tables, showing the running of the Trains • and must always be off the Mam Track with their Train at least 20 minutes before the proper time for ordinary i rains to pass; and on no account to move out of th« ,A ^ 60 CONDUCTORS, AC. 11 biding, until the Train has pa88.,d.
