The facts stated briefly disclose that employes commenced work as carmen as scheduled at their regular station at Savanna.Illinois, at 7:30 A.M.., except one who reported at 8 A.M. At 8 A.M. they were transported to a wreck site-where they arrived at 1 P.M. They then worked continuously until 6:30 A.M. the next morning, after which they were returned to Savanna.

 Rule 8 and Rule 10 of the agreement are involved. In addition., the Organi-_. 2ation claims the right to 6%o interest citing Third Division Award No. 16632 and action of the National Labor Relations Board in which the courts have approved awards of interest.

 As to interest, we have discussed very recently in Award No: - ~. (Docket No. 6138) the distinction between the powers granted by Congress to the National Labor Relations Board to fashion appropriate remedies and the function of this Board to limit its findings to the Agreements and Rules negotiated by the parties. There is no agreement between the parties to award interest.

 Consideration has been given to Second Division Awards:. No.2030 which denied the claim on the strict construction of an agreement which provided pay for tine worked on a rest day, but the Board excluded time spent in waiting or traveling; Award No. 2251 which denied the claim for pay while conferring with the carrier's
 attorney on a rest day to prepare for a court trial because a Rule of the Agreement.
 provided compensation only for loss of earnings while attending court and made no
 provision for time spent where there was no loss of earnings; Award No. 3484 which
 denied the claim for overtime pay under a call in rule for time spent after bul-
 letined hours in an investigation conducted by the carrier because. it was not work.
 as required by the Rule; Award No. 3955 which denied the claim of .a monthly paid
 employe for compensation for a stand-by day as time worked since work was not per
 formed and work that was performed during the normal eight hour period was paid
 under the monthly pay agreement; Award No. 4660 which sustained a claim for time
 spent by a crane operator climbing and descending a ladder to a.crane at the begin
 ning and end of his assignment and at lunch time because it was defined as work;
 Award No. 5840 which denied compensation for all. time consumed as a wrecking crew,
 because a rule specifically excluded relief time during which work was not performed:-

 Rule 88 of the Agreement requires that pay will be as set forth iri,Rule ; 10. Rule 10 in (a) states the method for computing pay and in (d) refers to Rule 8 (h) for payment of double tire for actual work performed. The Carrier's Submis sion p.p. 5, 6,,- sets forth the computation used for payment in this case for waiting: and traveling time and for actual work performed. Reference is made to Third,Divi-,:sion Award No. 16611 and to Second Division Award No. 3987 to support the meaning 'of'
                                                                -

"actual work performed".

 The Carrier's computation is correct but fails to account for the one-half hour spent in actual work by the carmen who reported at 7:30 A.M, on March 20. The
