Engineer
What is it like to be an Engineer or a Conductor on the California Zephyr - time wise?
The #5 train leaves CHI at 2 pm.
Eight hours later the train would be between Creston and Omaha.
Nine hours later the train is in Omaha and just over 10 hours later in Lincoln.
How many hours of rest does an Engineer or Conductor then have to have per HOS rules before they can work again?
If they get off the train in Omaha the next #6 comes through about 6 hours later heading to CHI.
