[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 1057585, member: 13921"] It is still the route I would take. Apply at the BNSF, CP, CN and all the rest. The railroads are all hiring because of the uptick in the economy and they have LOTS of people retiring every year. BNSF and UP both expect to hire or promote at least 1500 engineers in the next year. UPS will see the same type of retirements with boomers retiring and an uptick in the economy, but you have to start at PT wages and wait a year for benefits annnnnnnnd the retirement is never going to be as good as a railroad retirement. Your combination of age and fitness makes you the perfect railroad candidate. I regret the fact that I turned down a railroad position out of college. Would have been the best decision I could have made at that point in my life. [/QUOTE]
