          Dear Brother Berta:


          I enclose copies of Awards 18 through 28 rendered by Special Board of Adjustment No. 605 in cases involving the BRAC.


          Award 25 should be of help to us in the Boston Terminal Cases (MW-2-E and MW-3-E). Beyond this we do not see much significance to these awards insofar as our maintenance of way cases are concerned, although Awards 21 and 22 may have some bearing indirectly.


                With best wishes, I am


                              Sincerely and fraternally yours,


                                    4;. a:4

              (Clerks Cases)


        Dear Sirs and Brothers:


        I am enclosing herewith two copies of awards 18 through 28 made by the Special Board of Adjustment No. 605, established to handle disputes arising out of the February 7, 1965 Agreement.


        Awards 18, 19, 20, 27, and 28 were agreed to by the parties, while awards 21 through 26 are awards of the referee. These awards are all in connection with Clerks Cases.


        As you know, the Maintenance of Way and the Signalmen are also involved in disputes which have been referred to referees and as soon as any awards are issued in any of these cases, I will furnish them to you.


        We expect to handle the TCU and the Hotel and Restaurant employees as soon as it is possible.


                              Fraternally yours,


                              Ch a r'

            SPECIAL BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT N0, 605


PARTIES ) Ralph R. Gannon (Individual)
 TO ) and
 DISPUTE:) Erie Lackawanna Railroad Company
 QUESTION Respectifully submit that I, Ralph R. Gannon, was adversely
 AT affected as outlined under the terms of the Washington Job
 ISSUE: Protection Agreement when my position of Asst. Supt. Dining
 Car Department, Erie Lackawanna Railroad Company, was
 abolished and was forced to revert back to the Clerical
 Roster #11:A on June 16, 1961.
 OPINION This dispute was originally submitted to the Committee
 OF HOARD: established under Section 13 of the Agreement of May, 1936,
 Washington, D. C., and identified as Docket No. 1$B,
 Subsequently, it was agreed by the Section 13 Committee that Docket No, 158,
 along with several other dockets, would be submitted for decision to Special
 Board of Adjustment No, 605 in accordance with the provisions of Article VI,
 Section 3, of the February 7, 1965 Agreement.

 The record is clear that the claimant was not adversely affected by reason of the involved merger. He held a position as Assistant Superintendent Dining Cars and his position was abolished as an economy measure, such abolishment being in no way related to or coming about as a result of the merger. '

                      AWARD


            The claimant was not adversely affected by merger.
