Actually UP no longer allows smoking of cigarettes on any company property, and I believe the rules on drinking are very strict for train crews, if they're allowed to at all. Being on call all the time doesn't give you much freedom.

Posted by Samurai 9/3/2008 3:53 PM | remove   from what the guys on the CP Rail switch crew tells me, they are on call 24/7/365 (unless on vacation). The pager goes off, they go. Seems like a rugged way to live... I imagine train crews get paid $$$!

Posted by BravoOrig 11/8/2010 12:54 PM | remove   I once applied for UP but I was sick that day and couldn't pass the physical test, specifically the handgrip part. I still think about working for a RR but my life is too good to deal with being oncall like that. Believe they said the divorce rate is higher than any other profession.
