Working on the Railroad

This talks about being an conductor and the ways of the job. On the job conductors take tickets, collect fares, answer passenger's questions, and ensure that the passengers are riding safely. They also have to make sure that the train is in good condition; like making sure all the doors work and the lights. Yardmasters are people who tell the trains where to go and keeping them in on the right track and they do engine cleaning and maintenance by directing trains to the right stations. Being a conductor sounds pretty easy, but its not something I would do. I sounds like fun career job to do though.
