Who flips the waybills? Should waybills be turned during the operating session?
A5. Adjustment of carcards and waybills represents the paperwork done by the local freight agent and the customers “between” service by the local switch crew. From this perspective the crews should not be required to flip the waybills. The only person that really knows what is planned for the next session is the layout owner. An exception is a club. In that situation, that would be decided by the membership. On my layout, the waybills get flipped just before the next session. A friend willing to assist is always welcome to join in. Alternatively, to reduce restaging work, some owners specify that crews WILL move carcards and adjust waybills, probably after they finish switching a particular area.
