Engineers bound to railroad agreement in Sedalia meeting

The Great Grand Council of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers approved rules calling engineers to respond when summoned sign the caller’s book an hour before departure and keep engines in running order on their tracks unless forced to stop.
