     displaced by another Locomotive Engineer who wishes to exercise 
     his seniority under article 17 (a) if he is cut back to a       
     trainman.

     Revelstoke as an engineer.                                      
                                                                     
     Locomotive Engineers at Golden who are working as trainmen shall
     not be forced to fill Locomotive Engineer jobs at Revelstoke.

     Locomotive Engineer not set up at Revelstoke only after all     
     ESB's at Golden are set up in Locomotive Engineer positions.    
                                                                     
  3)  Temporary Vacancies                                            
                                                                     
     Temporary vacancies at Golden will be filled by the senior

  4)  Ad Hoc Vacancies
