Terminal Requiring Air Brake Test with Carmen On Duty

ON [DATE] AT MY HOME TERMINAL OF [CIRC 7], A CUT-AWAY PORTION OF OUR TRAIN HAD REMAINED AWAY FROM AIR FOR MORE THAN THE REQUIRED 4 HOURS. AT THE REQUEST OF [MANAGER/OFFICIAL], I WAS REQUIRED TO PERFORM AN INITIAL TERMINAL AIR BRAKE TEST ON THIS PORTION, WHILE WORKING CARMEN AT [CIRC 7] WERE ON DUTY, HOWEVER, "TOO BUSY" TO PERFORM THIS TASK. CLAIM IS SUPPORTED BY ARTICLE 31(A), ROAD AGREEMENT, WHICH STATES IN PART: "AT ALL TERMINALS WHERE TRAINS ARE MADE UP AND CARMEN ARE EMPLOYED, THE CARMEN WILL COUPLE UP AIR HOSE, TEST AIR BRAKES, AND SEE THAT THEY ARE IN GOOD WORKING ORDER." THANKS.
