Tim, they better not if they want to live. By that I mean if the conductor nods off, chances are that the engineer is fatigued as well. You both went on duty at the same time. If you both doze, what will stop the train at that next red board? When I was on the road, I figured that I was paid to stay awake, so thats what I did. It gets hard sometimes. If I got too drowsey I would stand or cool the cab off (if possible). Have drank many a Red Bull or other energy drinks. I always keep a couple in my grip. The hardest time for me is when you have been on duty all night and the sun starts to come up. Thats when it hits me the hardest.
