2-BNI-CM-°79
Accordingly, this Board has carefully ..revicwod the :investigative
transcript to insure that clazrnant -was provided a. fair and inpaftial hearing
We do not find, after COr1Ci.U.Cting this examination, that Carrier acted
arbitrary, capricious or singularly p?°ejudicia'al- ire. this proceeding.
We well n:i.Jh recognize the i.nc.vl-table adverse.ra_al propensities fox
viewing differently the hearing txa,nscr:i_nt, but we do not find the
conclusion herein at variance with the facts.
This Board has consistently observed the principle. so eloquently
expressed in Second Divis:i.on Award 
(?_787) 
that "v.,re are not the Criers of
the facts. Our duty :i.s to establish only that a fair hearl.nr; required by
the rules has been given and not to substitute our judgement for those who
have had a direct and in~nediate oppor-f-,u.nity to evaluate the ,,-itnesses and
their evidence." -vie do not find any justification for deviating 
iron. 
this
decisional -rule.
Claimant had been adjudged guilty of serious misconduct offense ti:at
was fraught with potential dangers. TTe 'was di:;charged for a Rule G
violation on h_p;~:il 12, 1965 and then reir.stated to 
Service 
on December 2'T,
1665. 
He was 
again 
disci"arged for sa~e violation on August
1970 
and agal _n reinstated to service or, i:ove::~;er 26, 1977... This is his
third Rule G violation, wh_ch is also Jo-I.ned with insubordination.
Surely under these un-I_que and repetitive circu::istances and the
compelling safety imperatives of this industry, it would be unv;artanted, on
our part, to .reverse Carrier's disposition. We will deii;,T the claim.
