To determine its original effective date, consult the supplement in which the reissued matter first became effective.
80	INTERMEDIATE APPLICATION-ORIGIN	Except as otherwise provided, subject to the provision of Notes 1, 2 and 3 below, from any point of origin from which a commodity rate on a given article to a given destination and via a given route is not named in Section Two of this tariff or in limited tariffs, which point is intermediate to a point from which a commodity rate on said article is published in this tariff or limited tariffs via a route through the intermediate point over which such commodity rate applies to the same destination, apply from such intermediate point to such destination and via such route the commodity rate in this tariff or limited tariffs on said article from the next point beyond from which a commodity rate is published herein on that article to the same destination via the same route. NOTE 1: The rate to the intermediate point authorized by this rule is subject to the same conditions to which the rate to the next point beyond is subject. NOTE 2: When by reason of branch or diverging lines there are two or more "next beyond" points, apply the rate from the next point beyond (in this tariff or limited tariffs) which on that article to the same destination via the same route results in the lowest charge. NOTE 3: If the intermediate points located between two points from which commodity rates on the same article via the same route are published in this tariff or limited tariffs, apply via that route from the intermediate point the rate from the next point in either direction which results in the higher charge. In applying this note, if there are two or more next beyond points due to branch or diverging lines, eliminate all such next beyond points except the point from which the lowest charge is applicable.
85	INTERMEDIATE APPLICATION-DESTINATION	Except as otherwise provided, subject to the provision of Notes 1, 2 and 3 below, from any point of destination to which a commodity rate on a given article from a given point of origin and via a given route is not named in Section Two of this tariff or in limited tariffs, which point is intermediate to a point to which a commodity rate on said article is published in this tariff or limited tariffs via a route through the intermediate point over which such commodity rate applies from the same point of origin, apply such intermediate point from such point of origin and via such route the commodity rate in this tariff or limited tariffs on said article to the next point beyond to which a commodity rate is published herein on that article to the same destination via the same route. NOTE 1: The rate to the intermediate point authorized by this rule is subject to the same conditions to which the rate to the next point beyond is subject. NOTE 2: When by reason of branch or diverging lines there are two or more "next beyond" points, apply the rate to the next point beyond (in this tariff or limited tariffs) which on that article to the same destination via the same route results in the lowest charge. NOTE 3: If the intermediate point is located between two points to which commodity rates on the same article via the same route are published in this tariff or limited tariffs, apply via that route from the intermediate point the rate to the next point in either direction which results in the higher charge. In applying this note, if there are two or more next beyond points due to branch or diverging lines, eliminate all such next beyond points except the point to which the lowest charge is applicable.
90	APPLICATION OF UNIFORM CLASSIFICATION	Subject to the rules and regulations of the Uniform Freight Classification except as shown below: 1. Not subject to Rules 13 or 24 of the UFC or exceptions thereto. 2. Shipments moving under the rates in this tariff are not subject to the provisions of Rule 29 of UFC or exceptions thereto. In lieu thereof, the following rule will apply on long or bulky articles requiring the use of more than one car (See Exception). When a shipment requires, on account of length, two or more open cars, the minimum weight to be used for the series of cars is the minimum weight prescribed for a single car plus 40,000 pounds for each additional car in the series. Freight charges are to be assessed on the greater of the actual or minimum weights. A series of cars shall be determined by the number of cars over which the continuous lading extends. No series shall consist of more than four cars. If more than four cars are used, the additional car or cars shall be considered a new series. A common idler car between two series for the same consignee and destination will only be used in computing the minimum weight for one series. EXCEPTION : This rule will not apply to shipments completely loaded in or on equipment owned or leased by shipper, including any shipper owned or leased idler cars that may be used as part of the shipment. For such shipments the provision of Rule 29 of the UFC will apply.
95	DETENTION RULES AND CHARGES	Except as otherwise provided, the rules, regulations and charges applicable to demurrage and storage, as provided in Demurrage and Storage Rules Tariff FT ASLG 6004-Series, issued by North America Railroad Publishing Services, Inc., will apply.
