That is the difficult part. The transition. I think WB/NB is a good starting point. I would say a 40 year payscale because one can get an ATP at (basically) 25 and work to 65. That's 40 years. In this environment, nobody needs a paycut. Some might get a bigger pay increase than others.. but nobody takes a paycut.
