hi,as a 20yr railroader for cn i can tell u, u better consider the family ramifications of your future job!! the money is good but [especially the american roads] work their employees to death....think about how being away for say 30 hours then home for eight and then called again for work will play on your married life!! making good money is fine but no weekends off,called at all hours,and little home time make a good recipe for divorce!!...not to mention head on collision when the crew falls asleep because of exaustion....read the newswire and see that most head on's occur in the wee hours of the morning...in canada we can book 24 hrs rest at the home terminal and have milage limits of 3800 miles for engineman and 4300 for conductors....i believe our american brothers and sisters have no such provisions
