"Besides, don't some LIRR MU sets on run multiple routes in one day? Seems like an dispatching headache. "Yes they do, and no it is not. The train I rode on every morning departed from Babylon to NYP then the crew made a run to Port Washington and back, before making their return run to Babylon. That was a day's work. Equipment is not the same for each trip. So the Crew chief makes up the schedules for the crew, and someone else schedules the equipment. They are not the same. All the crew chief has to do is to make sure that there is a crew for every train. All equipment chief has to do is to make sure that there is equipment for every train. All the dispatcher has to do it wind and wend the trains in and out of the stations and on and through the railroad according to schedules and any interruptions that will randomly occur along the way.
