[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by cmgeorgi Forgive me for being, not very knowledgeable, but what is the difference between a Conductor and a Brakeman. One of the locals for NS was picking up from a plant one day, and I heard him call the 3 step for the Conductor and the Brakeman. (With a crew of 3-engineer, conductor and brakeman) I've listened may times to them and this was the first, that I can remember, time I've heard him call them both. Cheryl [/quote] Brakemen are usually just a conductors assistant nowadays. Around here they are only found on local freights, and are needed because the local's serve industry, and quite often a 3rd member of the crew is needed for spotting.
