Like Rick said, it does vary from RR to RR. <br /> <br />Your best bet is to check in with the RR that you would like to work for and see what you need to do before you go and sign up for a school somewhere else. I doubt there is any railway out there that will allow you to work as an engineer right off the bat. Most railways will require about 2-3 years or more (depending on the person and how badly they need engineers) working as a conductor before you can be upgraded to engineer. <br /> <br />Prospects are very good for landing a job on the Railway these days, with most railways expecting a turn over rate of about 70% due to retirement. Most of the Class Is have already started major recruiting and are pushing for people to consider a career on the rails.
