A second installment of labor legislation was offered in the law of 1908 limiting the hours of railway employees engaged as trainmen or telegraph operators.

1908 年的法律提供了分劳动立法，限制铁路雇员担任火车员或电报员的工作时间。

A few minutes later, a train from the west arrived at Harpers Ferry. The wounded guard warned the trainmen of the danger at the bridge. Two of the trainmen decided to investigate.

几分钟后，一列从西面开的火车到达哈珀斯镇。受伤的警卫警告列车员桥上有危险，两名列车员决定调查一下情况。

Still more extraordinary than the Seamen's Act was the Adamson law of 1916 fixing a standard eight-hour work-day for trainmen on railroads—a measure wrung from Congress under a threat of a great strike by the four Railway Brotherhoods.

《海员法》更特别的是 1916 年的亚当森法，它规定了铁路列车员的标准工作日八小时——这是在四大铁路兄弟会大罢工的威胁下从国会强行采取的一项措施。
