[QUOTE="MisplacedRailWorker, post: 4564606, member: 67466"] If you're talking about the tractor-trailer drivers that bring the intermodal containers to and from the TOFC and COFC cranes, they are subcontractors just like at CSX Intermodal. A hostler is an antiquated term used for someone who would now be called a utility man (CSX) or brakeman (NS). Hostlers move locomotives around the yard and the term is coined from the Hostler position (a tiny window with limited control inputs under and aa dead-man's pedal) at the rear of some older locomotives.
