About this listen

Now officially a certified engineer, I'm back in the conductor's seat. In this episode, I share what it was like returning to the ground after training, dealing with unexpected pressure to run, and getting back into the rhythm of the Avondale-to-Livonia turn. I also talk about my first experience working jobs closer to home... and the intense day I was involved in my very first on-duty accident. This one's about real railroad life-how we handle tough moments, look out for each other, and why crews don't block crossings just for the fun of it.
