We get quite a few BNSF units in the shop! Im lucky I got in when I did because the talk of the town is pointing towards potential lay offs. CSX has been shutting down a few shops I guess. Probably doesn't help we are in the middle of a $160 million, 5 year expansion!

Yea CSX Corbin yard closed a couple weeks ago. I made the jump to GE since it was the same pay, I don't get dirty, and much better vacation/sick/personal days. CP already tried buying CSX but they got turned down so maybe NS will take a stab. NS isn't going anywhere! Your biggest competition was CSX and they are out of the picture lol its all you guys now

Tooling engineer for the worlds largest auto interiors company. I work with most all the major OEM's and travel globally to support various program launches. Currently working on the new Lincoln Continental, BMW X3, Mercedes A/B class and Toyota Tacoma. I've been in the plastics manufacturing industry for over 30 years and have seen a lot of change. I know the guy that owned DPM who molded most of our G body parts for GM back in the day.
I sorely wish reproduction interior parts were offered in vinyl like the originals, not this crappy thermoplastic that cracks on the first speedbump...
Oh man another railroad guy! How long have you been there? Being a GE guy I get asked electrical and mechanical questions and the electrical said has been pretty challenging!
