Posted by randyo on Sat Mar 29 03:50:37 2025, in response to At This Point in Time, Would All T/O's Be Trained and Qualified to Operate Anything From R46-R211?, posted by heypaul on Fri Mar 28 22:35:13 2025. T/Os and C/Rs SHOULD be qualified on all equipment on their respective divisions but years ago, that wasn’t the case. I recall in the mid 1960s when the only line on the IND that had R-10s was the A, M/M on the other lines were not qualified on them. One Sunday a M/M from Queens was working the “board job”at 168th St on his RDO. A board employee one who stays at a given location until a job opens any time during the tour and then he is assigned to that run which could be anywhere on the division. At the time the AA only ran R-1/9s but it happened that a M/M called off from an A run at 207th St. Since that board M/M wasn’t R-10 qualified, he couldn’t cover the run. |
