Inspection procedures

[nw-mailing-list at nwhs.org]

Why has NS opted to change  inspections from the inbound train to  the
outbound train ?  In times past, the car knockers would walk the  inbound
and direct cars with mechanical defects to the shop.  Now that  the
inspection is made to the outbound, when defects are found, everybody
stands around and waits while a crew knocks out the bad order.    Yard
leads blocked.  Initial terminal overtime.  Train delay, etc.  etc. etc.
