[quote user="BaltACD"] should they fail to qualify as a locomotive engineer most agreements require their employment in Train Service be terminated. [/quote] Question about that: The entire scenario you just outlined was exactly the way the recruiter from NS explained it. But, under such a scenario, doesn't that make it almost impossible to build any meaningful seniority as a conductor? Seems to me that if every conductor is going to get the call to become an engineer after a year or so, it would be nigh impossible to get the 5 (+/-) years seniority  (as a conductor) they say it takes to "hold" the conductors job on a local. I guess the thinking goes  that everyone is supposed to lust towards that engineer's position. Personally, the regular hours and being home everynight, even as a conductor, would be preferable.
