You don't have to sell tickets to the passengers, just drive the train, right? Makes the job about 50 % easier if there's no actual face to face 'customer service' involved.

No I don't have to sell tickets. I just sit in my drivers cab and smile, as I at least get a seat on the train!

From one train driver to another - Welcome to the club, bookworm.

Thanks!:up:

I think mass transit jobs, once you have them, aren't going to go away. As long as you aren't GROSSLY incompetent, pulling a Homer Simpson or whatever.

If you are grossly incompetent, they promote you to managment!

Congrats... Ive always wanted to drive one of the freight trains here... kind of a nice feelight to have that much power to do stuff with.

Some of the ore trains they have working in northern Australia are over 2km long! The power would be nice, the braking wouldn't!:o

Is it true that train-drivers have a one track mind?

Some do, it's easily derailed by a a platform distraction! (An good looking person of the desired gender!:timeout:)

Congratulations Bookworm, expect you'll be moving over to Rail Simulator now?

A friend of mine drives freight trains in Scotland- his favourite yarns usually involve collisions with sheep. Apparently they simply explode- I presume at the point of impact and not before.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 06:34 PM.
