tprashad0719 Posted October 21, 2016 Share #5726 Posted October 21, 2016 for those who are in training for C/R, do you guys have to post in the yard and if so how many weeks? or do you go straight posting on the road with a senior member? do they still have C/R's doing YX program?

There's never been a YX program for the title. Conductors in schoolcar only post on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tprashad0719 Posted October 22, 2016 Share #5729 Posted October 22, 2016 thanks Trick, I would only of thought that C/R post in the yards due to hand thrown switches, preparing a train for service or flagging? so its only the t/o's that do the YX program?

Only T/Os go through the YX program. Preparing a train for service is taught during schoolcar and doesn't require any separate posting to learn. Handswitching(only available in the B division) and flagging are separate qualifications(with their own posting) not taught in schoolcar. They might go over one or two things, but you will not be qualified as such during your training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
