2.1.14.2 Maintenance of Way - Track Inspection Train

Modeling Information

It is the duty of the roadmaster and division engineer  to frequently ride over their territory on fast trains and note the location of rough track. This information is at once conveyed to the section men so that the defects will be remedied.  

See Circular 8.2 Track Inspection Operations for more information.

The WWSL

The Station Agent will identify the need for MOW Track Inspection operations. The Station Agent will coordinate MOW movement with the Dispatcher.

The WWSL will use a special train to inspect the track and right of way. The MOW Department has an inspection car on hand for use. 

Track defects will be noted by the placement of a defect tack at the location of the defect. All other MOW defects will be noted on a defects sheet for resolution.
