Upon notification of conflicting movements along their route, the employee requesting the route must contact the crew(s) working in the area and conduct a rolling job briefing prior to joint use. Wiggins Industrial Lead breaks out at CP Jct. (MP 1.26) and extends 6.5 miles through Wiggins #2 and Wiggins #5 yard to MacArthur Bridge Sub, Springfield Connection at (MP 3.63). Movements on the Wiggins Industrial Lead between CP Junction and the A&S Switch at 19 th Street are under the jurisdiction of Madison Yardmaster. Movements on the Wiggins Industrial Lead between the A&S Switch at 19 th Street and Valley Junction are under the jurisdiction of the West Belt Dispatcher. Maximum Speed is 20 mph between the Levee Wye Switch and the North end Wiggins #5 (Including Track #25 at Wiggins #2 Yard) At Illinois Route 3 (Mississippi Avenue), Sauget, Illinois, the grade crossing warning system has been modified. A crossing Hold signal with radio control is now in service on the eastside of Route 3, governing Westward movements across Route 3. The Hold signal has two signal units mounted on one high-pole mast. The upper signal unit is turned toward the Monsanto Industry track inside the fenced area. The lower signal unit is aligned toward the Old Main and Cotton Belt tracks. Switching movements may now be made East of the Hold signal without unnecessary activation of the flashing lights and crossing gates at Route 3. When a Westward movement is needed past the Hold signal and across Route 3, the train crew will activate the warning system using the on-board engine radio in the following manner: a. Using the TRRA Merchants radio channel ( ), enter the crossing DOT number (which is marked on the East side of the signal house at Rte. 3), followed by [1], then [#] on the numeric keypad of the radio. Therefore, for Route 3 the correct keypad entry for activation would be [ #]. If this activation code is entered correctly, the train crew will hear a short acknowledge tone back from the crossing radio, and the crossing warning system will begin activation. The Hold signal, which is normally Red, will change to a Lunar signal, thirty (30) seconds after activation of the warning system begins Subdivision Timetables 9

16 The Westward movement then has an additional thirty (30) seconds to pass the Hold signal and begin entry into the crossing area. Otherwise, the timer will expire, the Hold signal will return to Red, and the crossing warning system will de-activate. b. After activation with the radio controller, if it becomes necessary to de-activate the crossing warning system because the movement will not pass the Hold signal, the train crew can either let the two thirty (30) second timers expire (60 seconds total) or enter the de-activate code on the engine radio: Enter the crossing DOT number, followed by [9], then [#]. The correct keypad entry to de-activate would be [ #]. c. If the crossing warning system fails to activate by radio control, the following steps must be taken: Immediately report the failure to the West Belt Dispatcher. Governed by Restricted Speed, slowly begin Westward movement past the Hold signal, stopping before fouling Route 3. The crossing warning system will automatically activate. Then a crew member will check and ensure that a minimum of thirty (30) seconds passes before the movement is allowed to continue Westward across Route 3. d. This change to the crossing warning system governs Westward movements only. Crossing warning system activation for Eastward movements is still automatically controlled by motion sensor circuits. The speed on tracks 5 through 8 at Wiggins 5 Yard is 5mph. No 6-axle locomotives are permitted in tracks 5 through 8. Permanent Hinged Type Derails have been installed at both the north and south entrance of the Wiggins Levee Track. These derails are equipped with a #104 TRRA switch lock. Conologue Industrial Lead extends 1.34 miles from the North Cotton Belt Wye Switch (Wiggins Industrial Lead MP 5.37) southward to the end of track. Movements on the Conologue Industrial Lead are under the jurisdiction of the Madison Yardmaster. Trains or Engines approaching the Monsanto Avenue highway crossing on the Conologue Industrial Lead in Sauget, IL are restricted to no more than 5 mph and must not occupy the crossing until they ensure that the flashing light signals are operating and that the crossing is clear of all vehicular traffic. When crossing is completely occupied by engines or cars, normal speed may be resumed. The ALS Crossing South of Cotton Belt Wye is protected by automatic interlocking. In the event of irregularity of operation, instructions are posted in box stenciled T.R.R.A. at the crossing and locked with standard switch lock for operating the switch key controller. SI-08 Misc. Special Instructions 1. Entire Illinois Transfer Subdivision is within Yard Limits. 2. All Westward movements on the Eastern Connection toward the signal at Granite City Cutoff should contact the Merchants Dispatcher before crossing Washington Street Subdivision Timetables 10
