Whats up with the disrespect for engineers? Throttle jerker? I seriousely doubt that those conductors get that Billy Bad A** with the Hogger. I find the respectful approach gets me farther with them. Most of those guys were in that seat when I was still ****in green. Try getting called off of the extra board for an unfamiliar run and telling the caller that you need a pilot, their response is O.K. only to get to the terminal and no pilot. The engineer can act as the pilot and a few have done that for me (they don't have to). Very cool of them. I always tie the engines brakes on my way back to tie the train down if they are cool to me. I give them respect until they give me reason not to. I have only had one a hole. Not too shabby for as many people as we work with........
