Yeah, but the NS don'et make you cough up $5000 up front for school.
The $500 a week is pretty lame though. Be nice if the UTU could help out the new guys.
And yeah UPRR engineer, it's $500/wk no matter how many hours trainees work. The NS won't them deadhead either, they sometimes spend days in hotels waiting for a train home.
