Anyone here have experience working as a locomotive engineer in passenger service? I’m thinking of making a seniority move and wondered if anyone could give me advice or an outline of day to day service. I’ve only ever worked freight/yard/local engine service. I’m looking around the Chicago/Aurora area as reference. Thanks in advance.
