Livestock Operations - Materials and Resources Needed

See http://www.frisco.org/shipit/index.php?threads/stock-pen-std-plan-october-1913.1632/#post-9337

 

As Keith notes, the March 1, 1946 Rule Book points to federal and state rules, which the crew are required to follow.

Rules 925-927 cover the handling of live stock and attendants.

Will post those rules in January.

 

Growing up in Springfield the son of an extra board switchman I was at Springfield Yard fairly often.

Dad was transferred in 1959 so I am not really sure on this but I think there were stock pens just east of the Yard Office.

 

Thanks for that!

I'll have to shuffle the cars in my trains, then.

 

Was there any livestock traffic on the Memphis-Amory-Birmingham end of the Frisco?

It could make for a fun addition to my eventual Southern Division layout.
