Gentlemen:
This has reference to the Merger Implementing Agreement entered into this date. During our negotiations we discussed the issue of conductor promotion, and specifically the need to complete the conductor promotion classes on all the territories within the Salina Hub on an expedited basis so that the merged conductor rosters can be finalized.
In this regard it was agreed that the parties will mutually commit to an expedited process of scheduling/conducting conductor promotion classes throughout the Salina Hub so that all remaining trainmen have had the opportunity to participate in such program on or before July 1, 1999. Trainmen promoted to conductor during this window of opportunity shall be given a seniority date as conductor in accordance with the terms of the preexisting agreement under which they were working prior to this Implementing Agreement.
If the foregoing adequately and accurately describes our agreement in this regard, please so indicate by Signing in the space provided for that purpose below.
Yours truly,
M. A. Hartman
General Director - Labor Relations
