People reading these forums are interested in rail operations. The day to day management of human errors is indeed a part of any industry. It makes history and explains the unwritten responsibilities that railroaders carry every day. I hope this isn't too stressful. Yes, Virginia, people do make mistakes.PSA: Some things you keep to yourself if you value your job...it's not like LIRR is unaware that this board exists. Mind your P's & Q's lest you find yourself in trouble for disclosing company business to the public.
