Western Railroad Discussion > Can you get Lineups at Yardley?

Or at Wenatchee or Pasco or Whitefish for that matter. I'm guessing that the people in the office really don't want to be bothered, and I wouldn't even try if it is bad protocol. But it would be nice to know what is coming. If you bring in donuts or breakfast tacos, can they be bribed? 8^D

It sure would be nice not to drive all over the place, and pick and choose the juicy consists that may be enroute. I am specifically looking for older EMD consists of the green variety.

Thanks!

If someone can get them and would like to be bribed, I'll take offers. I leave Saturday for the Great Northwest for 2 weeks.....

At Yardley the only clerks left are the drivers. They don't use a computer for anything anymore and thus do not get lineups. The yardmasters and trainmasters can get them on their computers but their offices are mostly behind locked doors any more. I suppose a crewmember can get one from the computer terminals they use to tie up but I do not see them doing that for their own use.

Alas, I fear lineups are yet another fine railroad tradition lost to us all.
