Q&A's
Allen Railroad Companies (ARC) has vetted, hired and trained thousands of Railroad Personnel since 1973. For the last three decades we have had to hire large numbers of railroad personnel for our own companies, we have developed a heightened sense about what to look out for and what makes a good railroader.
2009 RAILROAD
JOB ALERT.
In the summer of
2007, unemployment nationally was just under 4%, now it is
predicted that the rate could be as much as 10% this summer 2009.
With 20 million unemployed, job seekers have got to make themselves
stand out twice as much as they would have a couple of years ago.
Railroads can ship 1 ton 423 miles per gallon of fuel, making
the railroad industry a very "Green" industry. Being
"Green" is very popular in today's culture. The
US Department of Transportation is expecting $40 billion dollars in stimulus funds with
more then $8 Billion to
update the railroads, adding high speed rail in more then a dozen states.
This translates in to about $2 Billion in track builders
over and above the ones that exists today.
The railroad
industry, like the rest of the US business now has access to twice as
many employees to choose from as they did just last year. People with
railroad experience, training or backgrounds in mechanical and engineers
skills are more in demand.
Because of the first new safety bill signed
into law for the railroad business since 1973, "Railroad Safety
Enhancement
Act 2008" Railroads are requiring people
to come to the Class
one railroads, short line railroad and railroad contractors experienced
as personnel. Should you have railroad related training it can greatly
increase your chances of getting work for all types of railroad
companies. If you are not willing to do additional training then the railroad
industry will not be interested in you.
ARC-Tech.Net also
owned by ARC offers training as a option to get you ahead of
others, standing in line for very good paying railroad work. ARC-Tech.Net
can only charge a fee for training for railroads and contractors.
ARC-Tech.Net provides training at no cost when you subscribe to
RailroadJobs.Biz "list your railroad resume for life"
service. Common sense tells us no training or railroad placement company, nor any
individual person can
guarantee you a job, having some skills and training is required.
You get can training and experience from ARC through ARC-Tech.Net or
any of more then two dozen other Railroad Training providers. See http://www.railroaddata.com/rrlinks/Railroad_Training_Programs/ All
training programs cost some fee. Please, do plenty of research on
your own before committing to any training and railroad job placement
service. ARC-Tech.Net Training is participating in a $1.25 million TEA (Transportation Enhancement Act) grant from
2009-2011 to buy track material for OJT training on
selective non revenue railroad companies nationally.
RailroadJobs.Biz has
been receiving a record number of applications and we make every
effort to personally contact each and everyone who takes the
time to provide us with a little information about yourself by filling
out the application below. If you don't hear from us in a few

"Hi
Sue and the gang at Allen Railroad, This is Morris from Providence RI
and I am on my way to my first track inspection job with a
class one
railroad and I'm thrilled to death to be part of the railroad. In September
2007 I signed up to take the FRA 213 Track Safety Standards course,
completed the course in October 07,went to Kentucky for On The Job
Training to bring it all together. It is Easter weekend 2008 and I am
with my family in the beautiful southern states. I'm here because Sue
asked me where would I prefer to work geographically and I said
the south, thank you Sue. You folks at Allen Railroad worked hard to
get me here and I sure appreciate your efforts."
-Morris.
