In September, each division superintendent will choose a team of three supervisors, one each representing transportation, engineering and mechanical. The three-person teams will travel to the Technical Training Center in Overland Park to compete against teams from other divisions in their service region the week of Oct. 16. Each division team, which can include chief dispatchers and mechanical shop supervisors affiliated with a division, will take a 100-question written test and work together to develop the answers. The top team from each service region will compete against the teams from the other service regions for the Supervisors' Rules Championship. Inspect both sides of the remainder of the train from the last reported defect.
Report findings to the train dispatcher.
