NARR LAUNCHES NEW MEMBERSHIP DRIVE
How many railroad referees are
there? 86? 106? 206? The roster of NARR
has 86 names and is growing. The NMB roster
claims 206 names, 106 of whom were actively deciding
cases last quarter. The theme is clear: there
are eligible candidates for membership. This
year's campaign will invite the eligible into
membership. Carrying this membership drive is
Eckehard Muessig and Stan Dobry. |

MENTORING UNDERWAY
New Referees are participating in
mentoring projects in Cleveland, Kansas City, Fort
Worth, Omaha, Buffalo, New York, and Washington,
D.C. We encourage members to invite new
referees to hearings. |
CHANGE IS IN THE AIR
Awards last month indicate our
members are involved in assisting the parties with
rule changes, working conditions, intermodal
shipments, and mergers. Change is in the air
for the rail industry and the RLA. |
Next month's question:
With the proposed changes in the RLA,
should we open our doors to airline referees? |
