I'm going through a delema right now, I have the oppurtunity to be a conductor with BNSF. <br />I'm usually not afraid of change but my employer at a public transit agency is trimming more service after it slashed one third of service and laying off about 20 operators has got me on the edge of reciving a pink slip. Me, a transit bus operator making about $60,000-70,000 a year with the BEST bennies and retirment in the transportation industry and with a unknown company future. Now BNSF is giving me an oppurtunity to be part of there team. I'm looking for the average yearly salary, or pay structure. How much a conductor can possibly make in his or her 1st year of service? I'm already anxious, looking forward to class. I am a big train fan but I just bought a house and it closes early May and I move in end of June. Add on the 13 weeks of training at a limited income. So what do you think, I pretty sure someone out there has gone through what I'm going through, any comments and opinions are appreciatied, please let me thank you for your time and attention! <br /> <br />Thnaks, <br />Jimie
