I think most railroads have gone to a two man crew, a conductor and an engineer, the conductor runs the train and the engineer sleeps.

Hey, that's just like an F-111, where the nav ran the plane and the pilot slept.

This position is a "primary recall" position. Therefore, for a period of five (5) years (from the date of hire) “primary recall” employees stand for recall (in reverse seniority order) to the hire location until BNSF is able to hire additional employees at that location.
