This was 4 based on some of the year 2009 data, and assumed 5 that a targeted mailing would be included in 6 rolling out the zero dollar generic co-pay. Now, 7 this information is submitted as a courtesy to the 8 board and of course, it is without prejudice to 9 the organization's position that the health plan 10 should be carried forward on a status quo basis, 11 and of course, it would be subject to what I say 12 in my concluding remarks tomorrow. 13 CHAIRMAN JAFFE: Thank you, Mr. Munro, just want to 14 clarify so I understand. The cost figures that you 15 provided us, were they a comparison with the 16 existing plan, a comparison with the carrier's 17 proposal or a comparison with something else? I 18 think that covers the waterfront. 19 MR. WILDER: All right, my understanding subject to 20 correction is that it is based on the, carrying 21 the existing plan forward. 22 CHAIRMAN JAFFE: Fair enough.

I'm fine. 2 MR. WILDER: You asked for a comparative data with 3 respect to the employee contribution. That would 4 call for a different model, I guess is the right 5 term, than currently exists, and we're having some 6 difficulty with that blanket. 7 CHAIRMAN JAFFE: Thank you for the response. 8 MR. WILDER: You're welcome. 9 CHAIRMAN JAFFE: I think we're now ready to turn 10 back to Mr. Munro. 11 DONALD MUNRO: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, members of 12 the board. We're ready to proceed with the 13 carrier's rebuttal case. I would like to provide 14 you with just a brief road map of what we hope to 15 accomplish this morning. First we'll have a brief 16 presentation on costing, including our costing of 17 the extra compensation elements of the carrier's 18 proposal, as well as the union's extra 19 compensation proposals. Our purpose in doing so is 20 two-fold. One is to respond to the board's 21 questions regarding costs. The second is, I've 22 made the point at the outset that our case is SERVING WHERE EVER YOU NEED US BETA REPORTING INC.

Next we will have a 6 brief panel on compensation issues. This is 7 intended as largely a response to the testimony of 8 Mr. Roth. First Dr. Evans will return to discuss 9 why he believes that Mr. Roth is not accurate with 10 respect to his dismissal of wage premiums, or his 11 comments about the CPI and real wage growth, both 12 in the past and in the future. Second, Dr. Topel 13 will show that the impact of the existing premiums 14 is not theory, as Mr. Roth says, but has 15 measurable real-world consequences. Third, Mr. 16 Gray from AAR, who is the author of our Exhibit 8 17 will respond briefly. I promise briefly, to Mr. 18 Roth's comments on the degree in relevance of 19 current industry prosperity. We will then move to 20 the health and welfare rebuttal, where again, we 21 will address issues of costing, including 22 comparisons of capped versus uncapped options, as SERVING WHERE EVER YOU NEED US BETA REPORTING INC.

We 3 will be providing some Excel data back up to that 4 as soon as we can generate it. Our healthcare 5 panel will also respond to the Cheiron analysis as 6 well as the testimony by Mr. Parker and Mr. 7 Hildenbrand. I promised that we would address work 8 rules on rebuttal. We will now plan to do so in 9 substantially abbreviated form, including a 10 presentation on expenses away from home by Scott 11 Weather from Norfolk Southern and Greg Koontz from 12 BNSF, followed by a presentation on vacations by 13 John Hennecke from the NRLC, and Bill Roe from 14 Union Pacific, as well as a short comment by Mr. 15 Crable from CSX on Mr. Pierce's comments regarding 16 the CSX agreement. Finally, again, a very brief 17 comment on cab conditions and information requests 18 that will be presented by Rob Karov from BNSF. 19 Finally, we will bring Mr. Gradia back to respond 20 to a sampling of some of the other assertions that 21 were made in the union's case in chief. It's not 22 an attempt to be comprehensive but rather to give SERVING WHERE EVER YOU NEED US BETA REPORTING INC.

    BSRA Entertainment Report for June 7, 2014 LONG FORM (for historical record) Entertainment Report for June 7, 2014 June 7, 2014. Key System & Sacramento Northern. Clark Frazier presented a visual tour of the electric suburban Key System Transbay lines from San Francisco (connecting to the surviving Municipal Railway streetcar lines) to Oakland and Berkeley from 1956 to 1958, and then the freight-only electrified Sacramento Northern during the same time period. Most of these slides were from a Winterail show in California in 2002, but we got to see additional slides after the Winterail slides.. We started with a map of the Key System, which was a privately owned company formed from consolidating several streetcar systems and a realty company (Realty Syndicate of Francis "Borax" Smith and Frank C. Havens, which built and ran such properties as the Claremont Hotel which survives today as Claremont Resort), and then taken over by National City Lines in 1948. Before seeing the Key System itself, we saw some photos of the Bridge Terminal area, including Bridge Terminal itself (eventually named Transbay Terminal, and finally closed in 2010 for replacement with a new facility), which was the San Francisco terminal of the Key System and for a short period also the Southern Pacific (by way of its subsidiary East Bay Electric) and the Sacramento Northern, and then some modern photos of some of the San Francisco Municipal Railway's heritage streetcars running on the Market Street (Muni F) line, followed by some views of Muni streetcar service from the time period we would see covered for the Key System: 1956 to 1958.

  • 2018 Annual Performance and Accountability Report
    N M B 2018 NATIONAL MEDIATION BOARD / ANNUAL PERFORMANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY REPORT CHAIRMAN’S November 15, 2018 N LETTER The National Mediation Board had a banner year in FY 2018. The Agency’s mission – to prevent disruption to interstate commerce – remains as critical today as it was in 1934, when the Board was created under amendments to the Railway Labor Act. M NMB is pleased to report that there were no interruptions in the rail or air industry in FY 2018. Through the work of this Agency, the over twelve million jobs directly supported by the rail and air industry continued as usual. By extension, the millions of jobs dependent on the ability to travel and transport goods were also not disrupted. As unemployment B rates reach lows not seen in decades, NMB acts to ensure that work disruptions in the air or rail sectors do not dampen economic growth. NMB is proud to play its part in keeping the United States’ job-producing economy strong. At the start of the fiscal year, the Board’s statutory complement of three members was restored when two new Board Members and one sitting Board Member were unanimously confirmed by the United States Senate. At full strength, the new Board has been able to address issues which have long been of concern at NMB. For example, the Board addressed the fact that NMB has no assigned Inspector General by establishing a Memorandum of Understanding with the Inspector General of the National Labor Relations Board to create an anonymous hotline to report fraud, waste and abuse.

Identifier/Call Number: M0165 Physical Description: 50.5 Linear Feet(9 cartons and 99 manuscript storage boxes) Date (inclusive): 1880-1959 Abstract: Notes on the history of railroads in the United States and Canada.

Tillitson, 1955. Special Notes One very useful feature of the material is further described in the two attached pages. This is the carefully annotated study of a good many of the important large railroads of the United States complete within their own files, these to be found within the official state of incorporation. Here will be included page references to the frequently huge number of small short-line roads that usually wound up by being “taken in” to the larger and expending Class II and I roads. Some of these files, such as the New York Central or the Pennsylvania Railroad are very big themselves. Michigan, Wisconsin, Oregon, and Washington are large because the many lumber railroads have been extensively studied out.
