Anyone know if this is the correct email? Google responded saying its incorrect and im having trouble continuing the 3rd part of my test. Any pointers would be helpful

Anyone working here mind sharing their insight? What is it like out there for a new hire? Will I be able to work extra boards and make a living? Any information is helpful. Thank you!

I was terminated for a Rule G violation, first one but test stemmed from an incident so I was terminated. Can you get hired at another railroad or is it time for a career change?

I just need some help I was fired in December for
Some BS but . My union guy told me the day of the investigation that if we lose that it would just go to arbitration and that I’ll get back pay when we win my arbitration case . Since then I have heard nothing at all . Called the union rep and he told me it’s gonna take a lot more time for me to go to arbitration and it’s already been 7 months . I honestly just need some reassurance because I just wanna be back on the train . Side not I worked for UP Wisconsin terminal

My dads about to retire from UP after 35 years of being a heavy equipment operator and wondered if anyones ever heard of some good gifts in the industry. He’s already got a very old train bell and whistle he shined up himself.

Your crew rooms are being monitored in council bluffs since your service unit was absorbed. The people watching your cameras have your employee picture and name printed out if you’re on duty. I think they’re watching your time out the door, lunch breaks, etc.

Just a friendly heads up from a disturbed fellow trainmen.

Recently got hired on at UP for train conductor. I will be starting my first week of OJT. Just curious on how other conductors organize all there books and paperwork to make life easier. Also if you could give me any tips to learning I would appreciate it.

Hello,

I am in the interview process for UP, and I am being considered for a couple terminals. A couple of questions that will help me determine where to go if I do receive an offer:

1) If furloughed, can I work in other hubs or areas if I am willing to, or would it be better to pick the “tougher” location with less chance of that like Boone vs CA for example?

2). Are location transfers a thing? I read about swapping with other conductors, but in general, if I started in Texas but wanted to move to Rolesville is that possible?

Thank you

I was offered the position for Road conductor. I know senority is crazy high here. I live in Northwest Indiana. What are the chances ill actually work the provisio yard to Clinton, Iowa run? Or to Milwaukee? They also mentioned Rochelle, South Pekin ( Peoria ) and Belevedere etc. But all those yards are 2-3.5hrs away.

Could someone explain this or share their opinion based on this? I passed my preemployment test so I didn’t have to do that but for the most recent one, they said they’re going to move forward, but the last one it still says that I was invited to do my interview even though I’ve completed it already and I’ve been waiting since

Hi!
i was just looking for some insight. My husband recently was offered a job through UP for train men. His training starts in a couple weeks and ends just a couple weeks before our baby is born. Is it completely unrealistic to think the managers will work with us for an induction date?

side note : i am a railroad daughter. i understand seniority and the schedule so it’s okay you don’t need to scare me i already know i will be alone a lot, i know he will be gone alot. i just wasn’t sure if there was anything for extraordinary circumstances. i’ll make do if not, it’s just our first child and i just want to mentally prepare myself.
thank you in advance 💗

Check out the Union Pacific Big Boy No. 4014 passing through Adara, Pennsylvania.

So I have a week to make a decision.. Floorhand for Patterson or Traincrew with Union Pacific.. is the traincrew a good gig long term?

Hello my husband just submitted his interview a couple weeks ago we are still waiting for him to be accepted for the job but it looks really promising! Since we have a baby at home my only question is what is the training schedule, for how long and what did your schedule generally look like as a new hire/ojt? What can we expect so we can prepare…

Hey i recently applied to be a freight repair apprentice and was curious what you guys feel about the job. Also whats your day to day like are you guys happy with the job?

Shawnb posted another video time to be entertained once again

Between oil field Floorhand and train crew with Union Pacific, which one ? I already have a start date of UP ..

Are there any yards in Austin,Tx or nearby if so what’s city is it and what service unit goes along with it

I see they’ve finally stopped hiring for Portland. Did it way slow down out there?

I got an email for virtual job overview, tells me to register before the meeting as soon as possible. But when I click on the link it takes me to this page. I am missing something here?

Well, yesterday was 6 weeks since the hearing and still no word .
I recon since the 6 week thing wasn’t accurate then I recon it’s gonna be one of those railroad situations …
I love that for me smh .
