QUOTE: Originally posted by joesap1 After reading those comments about how the BNSF makes it a point to get the Amtrak over it's rails with as little as fuss as possible, I am beginning to think that the BNSF is or has emerged as the premier railroad in the US of A. I am, personally, partial to the UP because my Grandfather was an engineer on that line from North Platte to Grand Island, Nebraska. But the UP is slow about everything. The are slow in letting the Amtrak through. They are slow in hiring new help. I applied for a train service job that closed in December and have yet to hear anything. Upon contacting the UP, they told me it could take up to six months to make a decision. In contrast, I have applied for three different jobs on the BNSF and they quickly responded after the position closed( I wasn't hired, but nobody does every thing right). So may be the BNSF has there act together or at least as number two, they try harder. I am thinking I should switch my loyalities. Who do you think is the best running railroad in the U.S. today, and more importantly, why?
