Well, Andrew, first thing I would suggest is breezing past the Websites of various railroads -- Norfolk Southern, CSX, CN, etc. A lot of times they'll have a link that says something about "Employment." You could check there and see if there's somebody you can contact there regarding what to do to get hired.
Good luck, Andrew!
Good luck, Andrew!

Schooling helps. There's more out there in the way of vocational schools but here's one such school's website to look over and consider.

Go to www.nscorp.com and follow the careers link for Norfold Southern.
Edit: Here's the site for CN, http://makeashorterlink.com/?V2791297C the link shortened
