Well I just hired onto the I.C. railroad 3 months ago and I will tell you if you want a life stay at what you are doing. I love the railroad but alot of people that have been there 40 years will disagree. They have missed their kids lives and their marriages have went to crap. I am single and have no kids so it doesnt bother me YET. First you will start as a brakeman then a conductor and if your lucky in 5 years you will get a chance to get into engine service. But make no mistake I agree with the rest of the railroaders THIS IS A LIFE OR DEATH JOB. If you have problems with your personal life you need to leave them in your driveway before you leave for work. This job is all about your job not your personal life. If you make a mistake you could kill someone. My point is when your at work you think of nothing but your work. I am a fourth generation railroader and it's kinda the only thing I know so if your someone who likes to spend time with your family and friends I would not get this job. But if this is what you REALLY want to do go for it. REMEMBER RAILFANS CAN QUIT WHEN THEY WANT TO GO HOME-WE DON'T.-LOL
