Hi Gary, I plan on Having a job with the railroad when I'm 18, and I plan on becoming an engineer, but I know it is more complicated than just filling out a form and learning operations. Isn't there seniority required to be an engineer? And what are the best jobs to take before becoming one? A lot of engineers tell me that they rarely get to sleep in their own beds. How much time do you usualy get off between runs? Anything else? I want to work for the railroad because I woudn't enjoy doing anything else near as much as working on the railroad. I've had a lot of negative comments about becoming an engineer, but I'm sure I would still enjoy it. I've taken simulators, and I'm fimiliar with controls on wide and conventional cab units. Thanks for the help! <br /> <br />-Brian
