Not all of us RR's hate railfans. Most of the guys I work with let out a disgusted sigh when they someone standing near the rails with a camera in hand, but I will always wave because I was once the person on the ground waving with a camera in my hand. The only time I would get testy is if stupidity was invloved such as teens climbing on our moving train or drivers going around gates. This job sure beats all the other jobs I've ever had into the ground. I like going to work, I'd generally prefer times other than 3am, but still..... I mean to make the money I make now, and the benefits!!! I only dreamt of this stuff before!! Making $2,300 a half as an extraboard conductor. If I ever got my way, I'd love to hold a yard or local because there's more to do!! Doing paperwork and spotting cars, switching, now that's railroading. And of course being home every night is definitely a bonus. That'll only take about 25-30 yrs before I can hold one of those jobs, but ..... "Cats in the cradle and a silver spoon...."
