BNSF hours/work/rest for conductor? (basic work schedule)

Could someone please tell me what to expect in terms of work/rest per week or month, (typical work schedule for a conductor w/BNSF). Any comments please, thanks in advance...

Your hours will depend on the job you can hold. When I started, I was on a night yard job. My days off were mid-week. I was soon able to bid an afternoon passenger job with weekends off.
You could end up on an extra board. You may be marked up 24-7. If you need a day off, mark off.
When I left there, they were trying to add rest days to some boards and pools. These jobs work 10 or 11 days. after that, there are a few days off.

It can feel like you're working that much!
Marked up means available for work or on call. The most you can legally work in one stretch is 12 hours, though that doesn't necessarily include deadheading and such.

It is not my original post, but i am interested if anyone else could post what their schedules look like for bnsf.
