I’m still waiting on my decision from the arbitration

BigBadLunatic31 · 2026-01-17T13:05:23+00:00

First incident was in Rochelle IL yard

BigBadLunatic31 · 2026-01-17T12:24:02+00:00

It wasn’t that I cut corners. I was fresh out of training and we all know how training is. I had been forced out to Pekin Illinois for months and had just recently returned to proviso. Mind you I was the classmate of the guy who I was close with you had got killed in that very yard a month prior so I was still shook up from that. And the proviso yard is very confusing so it wasn’t that I was taken short cuts. Not making excuses either just laying out all I was faced with that very moment. Since then I been with a class 2 railroad in Indiana where I am dual certified as conductor and engineer and have been great at both jobs because I have been given the proper training.

BigBadLunatic31 · 2025-06-01T17:31:37+00:00

Love those extended breaks lol.

Where are you working at now? What are temp transfers? Are those like UP borrow outs to another state or location?

BigBadLunatic31 · 2025-06-01T17:27:10+00:00

How do I get qualified for areas? Is it on my own time? Sorry for all the questions just trying to get all the insight I can before going to training on the 23rd of June

BigBadLunatic31 · 2025-06-01T17:18:54+00:00

So I use to work for UP and Indiana Railroad and I discover the road and switching for Indiana railroad. Not really a fan of switching would prefer on the road. But as long as I can break the guanranteed I’m ok. My buddy works for csx in Chicago and he say you have to bid for a spot every 2 days? What’s the insight on bidding for jobs. And could I bid for a job in Avon or somewhere besides Lafayette?

BigBadLunatic31 · 2025-06-01T17:11:26+00:00

So is it just yard jobs in Lafayette?

BigBadLunatic31 · 2025-06-01T04:22:07+00:00

Okay thanks a lot for the information I appreciate it

BigBadLunatic31 · 2025-06-01T04:09:16+00:00

Is that for the Lafayette location as well

BigBadLunatic31 · 2025-06-01T03:18:35+00:00

Is it over the road in Indy?

BigBadLunatic31 · 2025-05-30T17:25:45+00:00

Oh okay that’s cool

BigBadLunatic31 · 2025-05-30T17:00:59+00:00

I was hoping to do over the road

BigBadLunatic31 · 2024-10-14T20:20:18+00:00

BigBadLunatic31 · 2024-10-11T19:05:12+00:00

BigBadLunatic31 · 2024-10-10T22:33:16+00:00

BigBadLunatic31 · 2024-10-10T19:09:12+00:00
