Item Description
You are bidding on your chance to “…work on the railroad all the live long day.” At Railroad Reality Week, you will experience 19th century railroading up close and personal. You’ll learn what each job on the railroad does and why.
You’ll start by taking our rules class and yes, you have to pass the rules the exam. You will work in the shop maintaining century-old steam locomotives. You will work out on the track, learning firsthand what it takes to keep the wheels on the rails. Then you will be part of the crew as they get another train over the hill. Experience firsthand how each job contributes to the well-oiled machine of the railroad.
All of the skills learned during the week come together when you and your fellow attendees are tasked with operating a diesel locomotive and switching a car from one track to another.
This is a hands-on, in your face experience. SO what are you waiting for BID!
