I have applied for a couple of mechanic positions at BNSF, I am wondering what kind of tools specific to the railroad that I'll need are. Will the company provide certain tools or stipends? I have auto mechanics tools and I've been buying aviation tools recently because I am in an aviation school at the moment.
You will not need any tools. They will all be provided. It's all big, aviation small.
Are you working on your airframe or PP?
Are you aviation or RR for the future? I ask because you will not use what you learn in A&P school on the RR. They train you and that's that.
