Single Run with Multiple Pieces

In this example, bus driver X is assigned to run 10000 and completes trips 101, 102, 103, and 104 daily. Trips 101 and 102 are part of piece 10000-1 and trips 103 and 104 are part of piece 10000-2. The driver has a long break between the two pieces. The trips serve route 12 and are part of block BLOCK-A. Driver X begins their day at a bus yard prior to trip 101 and returns to the same bus yard following trip 104.
