I took the BNSF Safety Instruction so I could inspect their Locomotive yard waste water treatment screen.
Does that count?

TSA should have to take the training and test, that way they would quit strip searching 90 year old great grandmas for weapons.

I think Rokee works for one, I know he repairs/rebuild locos so he may not actually work "on the RR". Also, Railroadboy from down Southeast ohio works for one I think, not sure how much he's on here.

Is it a requirement of the job to work all the live-long day?
