[QUOTE="MisplacedRailWorker, post: 5403231, member: 67466"] It looks like the moral of the story here is that seniority rules. I’m a low seniority conductor that wanted a specific local train. It worked 10 to 10 Monday to Friday and I was home every night. Well a more senior conductor got on it because it’s two hours closer to where his wife lives. Don’t ask me about this recurring theme of working halfway across the country from your family, but to each his own. but on topic, he ran through a switch derail and then went [B]right back over it[/B] putting the train on its side. He was disciplined but still has that job because [B]his seniority allows him to bid on it.[/B] [/QUOTE]
