Also, though I have 27 years of railroad experience (shortline), I know I will be starting over at the bottom, seniority-wise, and I figure Denver would present many opportunities for work, even for a newbie. With main lines heading N, S, E, and W, yard jobs, locals, RCO, etc., I would hope I wouldn't have to sit too much. Having said that, I would appreciate your input, after all, you know the territory.I work on the old Cheyenne Service Unit which is now part of the Denver Unit. I only have rights between Cheyenne and Green River. We use to though and in some other places too, but when they put the hubs in it closed the door, which has good and bad points. That would be a good place to hire out. Im sure there is plenty of work in Denver. Having worked a shortline will help you out alot. I was a contract switcher before the UP and having already known the basics made school a cake walk.
