Descriere

Description The fourth volume in a series of True Railroad Stories...most will leave you laughing, some will have you shivering in terror All, will leave you begging for more Every one is told by a professional railroader...some who worked with steam, and others up to and including young Millennials today, who are working with "short crews," Trip Optimizer, Smart Consist, and PTC (Positive Train Control). Climb aboard and learn what it is like to drag up-hill with only point six horsepower per ton or to be chased downhill by 13, 000 Tons See the difference from an era when the conductor was in charge of his train and his crew, compared to modern day, where an engineman is continuously monitored by closed-circuit tv and computer and both must continually look over his/her shoulder Yes, this is RAILROADING
