On October 24, 1967, regularly assigned wrecking crews returned to the point of derailment to resume wrecking service, and to retruck the cars left at the point of derailment.

The issue presented in this dispute is whether, under the circumstances, the loading and unloading work performed by the M. of W. crane and its crew was work that should have been performed by carmen.

At the time in question (October 23, 1967), there is no indication that a wrecking crew was called nor is there any evidence that wrecking equipment was required to perform the work. Under these circumstances, absent a contractual agreement, the awards are clear that the performance of such work by other than carmen is not a violation of the Agreement. See Awards 4131, 5197, 5438 and 5768.

AWARD

The claim is denied.
