The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen (BLET) has reached a tentative agreement with the Illinois & Midland Railroad for about 20 members who work in all operating employee crafts.
Ballots have been mailed and are due March 31. The Illinois & Midland membership is represented by the BLET's CN-IC General Committee of Adjustment, according to a BLET press release.
The short line is a 154-mile Genesee & Wyoming Inc. property that operates primarily in Peoria, Springfield and Taylorville, Illinois. It interchanges with the BNSF Railway, CN, Kansas City Southern, Norfolk Southern Railway, Tazewell & Peoria Railroad and Union Pacific Railroad.
