[Anonymous]

factory worker. I run a machine press that punches bolt holes in rail joint bars. Heat em up to 1800 degrees, roll em out of the furnace, and punch em. Then roll em into the quench tank.
Not the most mentally stimulating work, but it pays the bills for now, and it's associated with the railroads which is kinda neat. Makes you look at the tracks in a different way.
Plus I work about fifty feet from the CSX mainline carrying coal units from the hills of WV. Get to see some neat stuff go by.

Short of actually working on a railroad or for a hobby shop, I think I have the job with the closest relationship to model railroading.

I am a Forensic Animator, specializing in railroad litigation. Attorneys pay me to recreate train accidents and such using computer animation. Model railroading is not only a great hobby, but I make a few bucks off it as well!

Civil Engineer - Self Employed...
This results in a combination of Science, Construction, Self Employed, Finances, and Management. Also a lot of "OTHER".
It was an interest in Trains, and RR (construction) engineering that lead me into the field of Civil Engineering.
Instead of designing bridges that withstand iceburgs, - I am laying out Septic Tank Drainfields.

Go Figure!!!
