Summary:
Claimant was one of a crew of 3 (an engineer, a conductor and a claimant/brakeman). It is obligatory for a crew to read the daily operating bulletin. The fact that they neglected to read it to be advised of what was ahead of them on the track constitutes recklessness amounting to misconduct.
