My two sons took the test. I am a retired Train Operator.. Don’t worry about your number, they go pretty deep on the list.. The job is rough for the first two years.. You will be xx ( extra extra) .. I won’t get into how tough it can get but it will.. One word of advice to make your life easier.. If you live in The Bronx or upstate and the A division closes out, some people wait until the next round .. This way they will get their division and not lose too much seniority..
