Yes, we tye up our working ticket and walk off property. If you are working to your away from home terminal (AFHT), there are already steps in place to get you to your home terminal. I more than likely will be working to my AFHT tomorrow when/if the strike happens.

Are the yard crews union too?

On the class 1's? Yes.

Thanks. I have some product "in transit" from San Diego to Chicago, curious as to what's gonna happen with it

All I can say is that in my 38 year career, the longest strike I can recall was something just short of 3 days. And that was with Democrats in charge. I recall others that lasted hours, and at least one that was stopped by injunction before it even began. Like I said, the Railway Labor Act was designed to limit the effects of strikes.

Lunatic fringe....we all know you're out there.
