Gentlemen:
This refers to the Merger Implementing Agreement for the Salina Hub entered into this date.
It is understood that trainmen of the Denver Hub were awarded certain work at Oakley which this implementing brings under the scope of the Salina Hub and removes from the scope of the Denver Hub. In consideration of this, the following is agreed to. The current application of the Denver Hub Agreement provides that a pre-July 1, 1997 trainman may not occupy a reserve board position if a post-July 1, 1997 trainman is working in the hub.
To the extent that trainmen in the Salina Hub with a seniority date prior to June 27, 1997 (the date of the original Salina Hub Agreement) are occupying regular assignments, including extra board, headquartered in Zone 2 (Ellis to Sharon Springs), an equivalent number of reserve board positions in Zone 1 of the Denver Hub may be occupied by pre-July 1, 1997 Denver Hub trainmen irrespective of the presence of post July 1, 1997 trainmen working in the Denver Hub.
