I believe the correct term is Locomotive Engineer. At least know the correct job description you're trying to apply to.

452, read the previous posts in this thread. Don't get yourself worked up over this Datenail character, he's here to humor himself.

Interesting. Another simple calm and collected post deleted. I see that if you're one person posting false information for ones own entertainment under two different usernames, that's allowed to stay.

BlendedBrake and 277, please realize you are responding to a thread where the majority of posts are false and are created for entertainment purposes.

So you are saying that a Stationmaster can take you out of service? Do you even know what DSLE stands for?

Not sure why my post keeps on getting deleted, anyway, I'll leave this here again: I see we are responding with the "other" username now. I'm not going to debate with your falsehoods and bait tactics. Anyone who is RR knows what you state is completely false. An Engineers only Supervisor, ...

Not sure why my previous post was deleted. Anyway. You are wrong. The guy cannot take anyone out of service. No where in the rules does it say he is a Supervisor of T+E. What the rules do state, as far as complying with instruction goes, he will give you a track assignment. Or he may request you do ...

Stationmasters supervising train crews? That's a new one. Did not realize they were DSLE's as well..
Informing a crew they have to run another round trip, or "21 to West Side" after the train is already fully platformed, are not acts of supervising, rather being an intermediary.

As hard as any large vehicle (Air, Marine) being operated in a specialized environment. Train handling is a science. Training depending on the individual RR can be anywhere from a year, to two years approximately. BTW, Engine service sure offers a skill outside the RR world. You demonstrated you hav...

The C3's were based off a proven design, just specified to meet their needs. The same would have happened if Multilevels were the design at the time. BTW, all passenger equipment have MU, and Comm jumpers. I'm sure you meant the RR's request for 36-pin jumpers, not a combination of the two.
