Brothers,
The below message improperly identified Steve Carmichael’s placement on the 127101 Zone 4 prior rights roster. Per his standing on the 06111 Merged UP – Katy Ft. Worth South Roster he would immediately slot ahead of DR Pruitt on the 127101 roster. His standing identified on all other zone roster in
Thanks to Brother Underwood for expeditiously catching this snafu.
Fraternally,
Gil Gore
Steve Carmichael, former manager for UP is returning to his engineer’s seniority. As a former Ft. Worth South Engineer he has elected to exercise his prior rights to Zone 4 of the Houston Hub and is entitled to the same per the excerpt from the Houston Hub Standby Agreement below (Article II B, Paragraphs 4 and 8).
These agreements are available in their entirety on our website at http://www.bleupsrgca.com/ under the agreements tab. He will have common seniority in the Houston Hub on the other zones 1, 2, 3 and 5 per Article II Paragraph D of the Houston Hub Standby Agreement quoted below.
Per the below information, he will be slotted ahead of DR Pruitt on the Zone 4 prior rights roster.
He has a 11/21/1980 promotion date which would put him following Jerry Rose and ahead of GR Fourroux on the 128101 Houston Dovetail. He would fall between Rose and Fourroux on all rosters for zones 2, 3 and 5 on those respective prior rights rosters. Fourroux is a zone 1 prior rights engineer so he would follow JL Rose on that roster (124101 Zone 1 prior rights roster).
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

8. Union Pacific engineers currently on an inactive roster pursuant to previous merger agreements and other UP or SP engineers who are on long term leave of absence shall not participate in the roster formulation process described above; however, in the event they return to active service, they will take the appropriate equity slot, to which they would have been entitled at time of formulation of said roster and stand immediately ahead of the engineer assigned that slot. The Carrier and Organization shall jointly agree on all names of employees which are excluded from the roster formulation process and placed on an inactive roster.
D. Engineers on each of the prior rights rosters described above will be afforded common seniority on the other zones outside their prior rights zone(s).

If this process results in employees having identical common seniority dates, seniority will be determined by the employee’s fireman’s date and if there are still identical dates, seniority will be determined by the employee’s earliest continuous hire date with their Gamer.
