RULE 160 -- TRANSPORTATION CHARGES TO APPLY

     The charges applicable to the transportation from origin to destination will be those agreed upon by contract, circular, or quotation in effect on the date the loaded car is tendered to the railroad and the bill of lading issued. Any alteration, addition, or erasure in the bill of lading made without special notation thereof of an GRW agent shall be without effect, and the rate agreed upon by contract, circular, or quotation as originally reflected in the bill of lading shall be the applicable rate.

     If upon inspection it is ascertained that the commodity shipped is not as described on the bill of lading or other shipping document, GRW at its option may return such shipment to shipper at origin at a charge equal to the charge that would have applied had the commodity been properly described and transported to the destination named in the bill of lading; or GRW may choose to move said shipment to the destination named in the bill of lading or other shipping document at the transportation rate applicable to the commodity actually shipped.

RULE 170 -- TRANSIT, DIVERSION, RECONSIGNMENT

     Unless specifically provided for in individual rate publications, GRW will not provide transit, diversion, or reconsignment..
