Railroads use
timetables to provide information to employees and passengers alike. Public
timetables typically provide arrival and departure times of passenger trains.
Employee timetables, while sometimes providing train schedules, also contain information
about the territory the employees operate over. Some of this information
includes: station names & locations, maximum speeds, radio frequencies,
signal aspects & indications, and other special instructions.
The following information was
taken from the Kankakee, Beaverville & Southern Employee Timetable # 1,
dated April 15, 1990, with additions made for clarification.
The timetable
provided on this site is for general information only and not for the government
of railroad employees.
