Hello all! Time for another post about my transfer. Here goes..... <br /> <br /> While I was over in Indy inspecting the building of my house, I met with the conductor trainee coordinator today and he laid quite the pile of paper/books in my lap. But I learned a lot of stuff, and I have a heck of a lot more to learn. I might as well be a new hire; completely new territory with a different signal system. Hey Modelcar, I'll be in your vacinity around March when I train on J767 that makes the turn at Muncie. Otherwise I'll be qualifying on the East end of the Indy road going to either Walbridge or Stanley Yard in Toledo, and over to Crestline, OH. And then there's J776 that goes to Frankfort, IN. And for even more fun, my physical characteristics test has 119 questions on it. My 12 question test at Danville is a joke in comparison. <br /> I'm willing to learn though, it's only intimidating due to the lack of familiarity. The one thing that sucks is having to qualify on my "own" time [:(]. Fortunately, I only have to qualify in one direction then I get paid to qualify Westward and in the Yard, which takes 60 days!! The Yard, should really be referred to as Indy proper because it basically is the whole city. Well, CSI is almost on, so I'll wait for some replies. All I can say is I'm excitied for the Change. <br />
