 Statement of Claim: Claims of various Laramie brakemen for 150 miles each on various dates in August and September 1966, account not called for flagging service at PIP 631.09.

 Findings: The record in this case in respect to the circumstances existing on the valid claim dates establishes that, although the maintenance of way employees did perform flagging, same was not the core portion of their service but was only incidental to their primary section hand work. Given this finding of fact, an application of the basic principle set forth in this Board s Award No. 1 commands a denial award here.

 AWARD: Claim denied.
