Sub: Free time for loading/unloading of long haul rake of BOBRN(117 wagons) at MPJM and JPVN sidings respectively Ref =: WCR’s letter No. WCR/HQ/C/G-458/New Siding/MPJM dt.20.07.2015

Please refer to WCR’s letter under reference seeking clarification regarding permissible free time for loading of long haul rake of BOBRN(117 wagons) in MPJM siding and unloading of the same in JPVN siding.

The matter has been examined. Board(MT) has decided for this particular case only, the following:

e During loading, since the long haul rake is not loaded in one placement but requires placement into two parts, it will be treated as two independent rakes and the free time will be permitted as per extant guidelines.

e During unloading, the long haul rake is not seperated into two parts but is unloaded as a single rake continuously. Therefore, 4(four) hours free time (instead of 2 hours permitted for hopper wagons) at EOL terminals will be permitted.

This issues in consultation with Traffic Transportation Dte. and with the concurrence of

Finance Dte. of Ministry of Railways.
