What You'll Do

Locomotive Servicing

Perform daily locomotive inspections required by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA)
Load traction sand, potable water, and lube oil
Verify and replenish locomotive fluid levels as needed
Operate truck-mounted service equipment and controls
Stock locomotives with bottled water and crew supply packs
Maintain locomotive cabs and restrooms by removing trash and wiping down surfaces
Evacuate and properly dispose of locomotive toilet waste using approved servicing equipment and designated disposal procedures
Follow all company, railroad, DOT, and safety procedures

Locomotive Fueling

Loading, transporting, and transferring red-dyed diesel into trains on an "on-call" basis for the Railroad.
Safely fuel locomotives using specialized fueling equipment
Stick fuel tanks and monitor fuel levels
Pull fuel hoses and operate and lift fuel nozzles

What Makes This Different From Traditional Trucking

Approximately 90-95% of the work is performed outside the truck. This is a hands-on railroad position where you'll work directly with locomotives in a railyard using specialized equipment, lifting and pulling hoses, and climbing in and out of your truck or climbing locomotive steps multiple times per shift. You will be working outside in all types of weather.

Because railroad operations run continuously, dispatches may occur at any time during your scheduled shift. You are paid for your full 12-hour shift, including breaks, lunch, and wait time.
