Introduction
The author will take you step by step through the trials and tribulations trainmen have to endure, such as witnessing fatalities from suicides as well as train vs. car wrecks. He will show you a bird’s eye view from the inside of the caboose and the locomotive, where all the action is, involving the Conductor and engineer. All the funny stories they tell, and hear, from each other will be shared with you. You will also learn about the horrible living conditions when working an overnight trip. He will share with you the funny situations the passengers get themselves into, and how the crews get them out of some really embarrassing predicaments. You will travel from steam engines to diesel locomotives; from caboose to no caboose, and learn how they build the tracks with everything from pick and shovel to modern day machines. The author will explain why some Conductors need to be removed from the train as much as some of the misbehaving passengers. This book was written for your entertainment from a Conductor with first-hand knowledge and experience. Table of Contents Chapter 1 People Do the Craziest Things

In this
book, the author will try to help you understand just what trainmen do for a
living and why they love it so much. You will see the good side and the bad side
of railroading. He will explain why some trainmen have quit their job even after
several years of railroading, and why some railroaders stuck it out and made a
career out of a great job. You will find out what it’s like to be responsible
for millions of dollars worth of equipment, and how they are held responsible
for the safety of their crew and the thousands of passengers’ lives riding on
board their trains each year.
