At the outset, we note that the Claimant has other claims for the
same period. This Board has consistently held that pyramiding, compounding
and duplicating claims cannot be supported. For this reason alone, the Claim
warrants dismissal.
Beyond such defect, the facts indicate that no conference was held as
required by Rule 47 of the Agreement and the Railway Labor Act. For the
reasons set forth in Third Division Award 26749, the Claim must be dismissed.
Finally, even if the merits could be reached, we can find nothing in
the applicable Agreement between the Carrier and the Organization which supports the Claimant's posi
