Whats the typical pay for a switchman?

Question

Railroad

Answer 1

Hmmm, there are so many variables. On the BNSF in CA board 9 (yard switchman) pays 2,300 for 2 weeks (that's a guaranty board) but I have made as much as  3,600. Brakeman's board, 2,800. Conductors extra board, 3,500...    Yard rate of pay is the highest at about $26 hr. but remember you are not

paid by the hour, you get paid by the mile.
