Your Timebook, Done Right.
Timebook helps you track trips, hours, mileage, deadhead, layoffs, pay, and more — all in one FRA-aware, rail-specific logbook built for working crews.
Railroader Timebook is a personal planning and recordkeeping tool. It is not an official FRA record or employer reporting system. Always follow your railroad, union, and FRA rules.
See your time at home vs away, FRA hours and limbo, and every dollar of trip, layoff, and extra pay in one monthly roll-up.
Log trips like you already do — but smarter.
Enter each job just like your paper book: on duty / off duty times, symbol, power, terminals, miles, deadhead, and notes. Timebook keeps the math, FRA rules, and summaries straight in the background.
- Track duty, limbo, and miles for every trip.
- Deadhead, taxi, and turn jobs are handled correctly.
- Layoffs, guarantees, and extra payments live in the same book.
Stay ahead of hours, limbo, and rest rules.
Timebook is built around FRA duty and rest limits. It shows you monthly hours worked against the 276-hour cap, tracks limbo, and surfaces consecutive starts and mandatory rest so there are no surprises at the away-from-home terminal.
- Automatic 10-hour rest and extended rest when duty runs long.
- Monthly FRA hours and limbo used vs remaining.
- Short-rest continuous duty and taxi-and-turn handled correctly.
