JLHB Posted May 18, 2014 Share #3504 Posted May 18, 2014 @R160RR it's nothing too crazy... it's just for trouble shooting. We need to know what breakers provide power to certain parts of the controls or something like that. One thing that's great is that EVERYTHING is in the books (I need to study) lol don't worry it sounds crazier than it really is.

Vee Posted May 18, 2014 Share #3505 Posted May 18, 2014 Hey everyone, just wanted to say have a great week, and get some rest...it's going to be busy..talk to guys soon :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R160RR Posted May 18, 2014 Share #3506 Posted May 18, 2014 At JLHB for the circuit breakers are they different depending on what type of train car ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juconyc Posted May 19, 2014 Share #3507 Posted May 19, 2014 I know for candidates who have yet to be called it must be nerve wrecking waiting for that call... But I see the questions your asking about the train equipment we are learning and its pointless.... when your start training all your questions can be answered! you cant ask about circuit breakers and you haven't even been sworn in... I'm on my way to perfecting my craft as well as my other fellow Conductors and have no problem helping other probies in the same position as my self... but to be asking equipment questions and you haven't even been hired yet is beyond odd to me.... Just my two cents... wassup TIM its big Joe...We gotta master this position bro and move on to T/O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R160RR Posted May 19, 2014 Share #3508 Posted May 19, 2014 Well is always good to get a idea and collect as much knowledge as i can. I have the right to ask who are you to say i can or can not. If you dont want answer my question is cool just keep scrolling down. If it bothers or irk you that much. The purpose to the site and this thread is to get info to get familiar and idea what we are in for. For you to make a statement like that contradicts the purpose of this sight was made for. That comment is pretty much against what this site is made for. Just my two cents. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juconyc Posted May 19, 2014 Share #3509 Posted May 19, 2014 Lol listen bro. I hope you make it as far as you want to go... just remember to crawl before you walk... NOBODY is going to give you extensive info about the inner working of trains because its a violation of TA rules... So if your in line to get called,be patient and have all of your ducks in a row..

R160RR Posted May 19, 2014 Share #3510 Posted May 19, 2014 If it is part of TA rules maybe you should of start off with that before writing all that extra stuff lol . That would off been great dont you agree? Thank you and good luck on your future endeavors. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYTech2000 Posted May 19, 2014 Share #3512 Posted May 19, 2014 Calm down children... play nice! You will be swamped with that info soon enough even if we told you details now it would only serve to confuse you anyway. My whole class passed the final practical tomorrow it looks like we start as XX C/R's. I hope they continue the schedule for me like tomorrow is going to be good for me considering.

NYTech2000 Posted May 20, 2014 Share #3514 Posted May 20, 2014 what was the extent of the yard and road practicals? Well it is pretty much what was written already in the forums. The first practical consists of checking the cars adjacent to your operating position,double zoning, and cutting out a door properly. They also usually throw in something random and extra to troubleshoot. The second practical consists of routine stops, stopping short of your marker and a station overrun. Also keep in mind G.O.'s and unexpected things happen even during the practical so it can affect us. 12-9's wait for no man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
