In Altoona Pennsylvania on August 12 a joint meeting of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen adopted a resolution calling for reducing Sunday and holiday work. They argued Sundays see more work than any other day and railroads use Sunday as a cleanup day, noting many trains could run on other days and give crews a rest.
