Incident with N&W 475

[NW Mailing List]

There was no operator inside the backhoe at the time in any videos I have seen.

  Gentlemen (& turnip growers)…..Thanks for the responses that explain situations where the “blue flag rule” (Rule 26) would apply. Since the posted videos showed that the excavator was active with an operator inside, I thought Rule 26 would have been in effect to protect the MoW crew. Thanks for the clarification. Herb Edwards

Herb,A blue flag means that there are people working in that track and not to enter.If a track is out of service, a MOW person would have locked the switch and a bulletin put out to that effect ((no blue flag).
