Answer 5

Several of the smaller railroads in the US are having a difficult time finding qualified applicants. I have even seen some billboards on the sides of the roads advertising for workers. Starting with one of these and moving to a larger road is often the easiest route to take in the US.

Get online at www.up.com, that would be a good start for the U.S. part, U.P. is hiring like crazy right now....good luck
