The way it always worked was that you had to qualify for the one division you were going to work. You COULD go back to schoolcar and qualify for the other - the equipment and territories are THAT different. So you would end up qualifying for either/or. But the rules are if you're going to switch divisions, you must REQUALIFY for the other one, so back to schoolcar again.When I came in, I was assigned to A division but when we started schoolcar, they were short for B division folks, so they asked for volunteers. My hand was up so fast, papers fell off desks. Heh. There's also C division which is misc and work equipment and there you're qualified for either, but you no longer work revenue. Does that help? |

Compare converting all low platforms to high, cost-wise. The MTA did that to the LIRR, although it did take them a few decades to finish the job.Metra might have been better off putting up wires and exchanging F40PHs for ALP-46s. |

That's one thing that gallery cars solved; Comet Is in their original configuration too.Besides, on railroads like that, trains ran with doors open. I remember a lot of nights getting off the PATH and onto NJT at Newark Penn; the trainmen would open up the traps before the train pulled out, and you'd be flying down the "Northeast Corridor" at close to 100 mph mere inches from doom if you were riding in the vestibule. |

Terrorists like you who provide comfort and support to our enemies owe an apology to the United States of America and everything it stands for.You better not post here on Memorial Day. Guess what that day commemorates? That you post this treasonous trash on the 150th anniversary of the Gettysburg Address shows that you are beyond redemption. "Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." Abraham Lincoln Now get the fuck out of my country. |
