RIP (Repair In Place) Track

 File — Box: 62, Folder: 18
Scope and Contents

Exhibit Q-2 shows the repair or rip track at the Bayshore yard. There are 100 to 150 men working in this area as to whom a sharp lookout must be maintained at all times. Because of the curvature of the tracks here in all directions, it is essential that a fireman as well as an engineer maintain lookout form both sides. This is also particularly important because of a road crossing which is noted in the foreground of the picture.

Note also on the right center the numerous crossovers and other curved tracks all of which require constant lookout on both sides of the locomotive and therefore it is necessary to have a fireman and an engineer in the cab at all times.
