I enjoyed what Jeffhergert and others have said most of it is absolutely true. Nothing like waiting for that phone to ring. You guys are young now and it's great to have a dream. You can get what you want in life if you reach for it. The caveat is always, be careful what you wish for, you may get it... <br /> <br />Being a locomotive engineer is a lot of work and knowledge. Spend some time on your english and math (particularly computer related) skills. They will help you a lot. Get that first or even second college degree before you sign up. It'll help whether you stay with the RR or move on. I have three degrees, they help me and still I get to run trains... <br /> <br />LC
