train five minutes after the guage on rear reads 75
pounds. Once entire ffain is started, a minimum brake
pipe reduction will be made by the time the lead unit
reaches the east corssover in Cowen Yard. Train speed
will be kept at or below 5 mph until engineer is satisfied that train brakes are functioning properly. Speed
may then be increased to not exceeding 10 mph until
lead unit reaches mile post 115, by use of the dynamic
brake and additional brake pipe reductions as needed.
After passing mile post 115, every attempt should be
made to control speed not to exceed 23 mph until head
end of train passes mile post 101 .5
lf the engineer is not satisfied with the brakng effort of
his train, train must be stop@ and inspected with
train brakes left applied. When ready to proceed, train
brakes will be recharged as prescribed by special

and a minimum reduction made before train speed
exceeds 5 mph. Train will then be controlled as
described above.

Hand operated switches: The only switches that may

hand-operated switches that in the past were designated as 'run through switches', these switches must
be operated by hand before eguipment passes over
'Helper Link' box receptacle. The 'Helper Link'
box also incorporates a coupler-lift mechanism.
The pin-lift mechanism mounts under the walkway

clamps that attach to the underside of the

must be attached to the coupler-pin lift loop on the

Operation of Equipment:
Bebre attaching to the rear of the train, the engineer will make a safety stop, and then ascertain
that the knuckle on the helper locomotive is open
on the end to be attached to the train. After coupling to rear of train, stretch slack to insure that
coupling has been made and position the helper

Engineer alarm feature:
Once the'Helper-Link' has established communication with the two-way ETD on the rear of the
train, if the ETD or helper link box malfunction, the
alarm bell will ring in the helper locomotive cab
indicating a problem. lf this occurs and trouble
cannot be corrected, train will be stopped and

service brake test per THR-I 1.2.7. Brakes should
apply and release on helper locomotive as if brake
pipe air hoses were coupled between helper loce
motive and rear car. Once brake test is completed,
train is now ready to proceed.
Note: During train movement, if necessary for
helper locomotive engineer to initiate an emer-
gency brake application, the automatic brake must
be placed in emergency position on the helper
locomotive. The 'Helper Link' will transmit an
emergency brake application reguest via electronic signal to the two-way device located within
the ETD. Similarly, the lead engineer, when making
a service or emergency brake reduction, will cause
the Two-Way" E-fD to transmit the drop in brake
pipe pressure to the'Helper Link'thereby causing
the helper brakes to apply.
When approaching the location where the helper is
to detach, it will not be necessary to stop train to
cut off helper locornotive. The helper engineer,
when approaching the 'Cut-Off location, will turn
the power reduction knob to full power and position the toggle switch to trainline power reduction.
This will activate the 'Pin-Lift' mechanism lifting
the helper locomotive coupler pin. Once the signal
is received in the helper link box to 'Lift the Pin",
130-140 PSI air pressure will be forced into pinpuller air line to activate it. Simultaneously to
that, the helper link will disconnect mmmunication
between it and the two-way ETD device. At that
point, the helper engineer will receive an audible
alarm bell signal ur the locomotive. When that
signal is received while still moving and before
reducing throttle, helper engineer will palce autoCSX Transportation
