[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Junctionfan [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Limitedclear [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Junctionfan Hey LC, have you been(or are you) a trainmaster? I know you were a conductor and you probably have been an engineer but have you done other cool stuff? [/quote] No, never a trainmaster. Was a yardmaster for a time. Yes I have been a trainman, brakeman, condutor and locomotive engineer. These various capacities have been on both Class 1 and Class 3 railroads at various times. Depends upon what you mean by other cool stuff. I have represented railroads as outside (retained) counsel in grade crossing and environmental matters. I have acted as general counsel for several short lines including forming new short lines by incorporating the corporations, and ICC and STB filings. I have negotiated union agreements. I have been a member of two operating unions and advised on starting a new local in one case. I have served as senior management (V.P. for one short line). LC [/quote] That's the cool stuff I'm talking about. Getting into all that particularly the V.P part would be really nice. I can't help think that the only way I might get into something like that is if E.Hunter Harrison copied Donald Trump and started an Apprentice like t.v show and I won. [/quote] There is no easy way to accompli***hings. You have to get out there and try. Darn few shortcuts in this industry. That said, I'm sure you can find a RR job at a Class 1 or short line in Canada and get yourself started. That is how it all begins... LC
