What is the term used for the time difference between a train employee's residence and their RRP?

Deadhead Time refers to the period in which train employees are traveling to or from their assigned duty location (the RRP, or Report and Relief Point) but are not performing their regular job functions. This can occur when they are returning home after completing their assignment or when they are being transported to a new location for a subsequent assignment. Understanding this term is crucial for scheduling, as it affects employee work hours and overall efficiency within the rail system.

The other terms—Final Release, Relieved Time, and Interim Release—are associated with different aspects of train operations, but they do not describe the travel time related to commuting between an employee’s residence and their designated work location. Therefore, Deadhead Time is the appropriate term for the time difference in this context.
