Biographical / Historical
The National Railway Labor Conference [NRLC] was formed in October 1962 to represent the carriers in negotiations with railroad unions. The NLRC is a not-for-profit association and represents member railroads in dealing with representatives of organized employees on a national level in matters involving railroad labor relations; health and welfare benefits; appropriate matters before the courts, Congressional committees, and other governmental bodies; and other matters of interest or concern to its members. Membership is open to any railroad within the continental United States.
This collection contains the Awards of Arbitration Board No. 282 in the matter of the crew consist dispute, which was a dispute between the railroad carriers and their employees' labor union regarding how many men were needed to work a locomotive or yard switcher safely and productively.
