Re: How to become a Railway Engineer?
You can choose any railroad at the location you wish to live at.
Go to work in the operating department. that will be as a brakeman or switchman, that is the pathway to engineer. In time depending on manpower requirements, usually less than 5 years you will be offered a chance for promotion to engineer. The training class is usually a bit less than a year, is quite intense but most people pass. Railroad business is forecast to increase over the foreseeable future, if you are furlughed temporarily dont despair, you will be recalled. It's not a prefect world, but it is a pretty good job, a bit stressful on family life but beats sitting in an office all day. Good Luck! |
