The extra 4 m.p.h. allowed on most stretches of track do not add up to a need for another crewman. If the brotherhoods had organized bus companies, would there be a brakeman crouching on the floor beneath the driver's feet so the brakeman could pu***he brake pedal? <br /> Railroading could get miles ahead of other forms of transportation if nearly all employees developed capabilities in several fields--some in offices, some on the road, some out selling, &c. To avoid getting stale and unhappy a variety of kinds of work is ilndicated. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Wow, the holy grail! Too bad you aren't a RR advisor.....all of our problems would be over. You are talking out of your butt about brakeman...you have no idea that a brakeman is very instrumental on some trains in expediting its work. All trains do not have brakeman, and the ones that they are called for need them. Go back to your hole with your misinformed opinions.
