Expected to layoff 30 employees in April.

It will happen just as I have foreseen it...

According to an article in the Wall Street Journal tonight. Hope it’s true.

Do railroaders get screwed again...? Plenty of guys laid off do they get a bonus to unemployment!!!

We need the juice from "well placed sources" in this time of troubles!!

NS is passing out some phony AAR letters that purport to give rail workers some sort of free pass to circumvent government checkpoints/travel restrictions. Despite the AAR being an industry group and having no real government authority or power, NS... —  read more 

The radio shop told to pack up and move to SCX by april 1 . The whole complex is sold to Progress Rail .

Calling employees this weekend for starting on Monday

We were told at our shop today that there was no more money in the safety budget for safety glasses, gloves or anything of the like! They told us that we were responsible for our own safety and that it was a condition of employment and if we cannot... —  read more 

Now the phone app NS has wont let you mark off at all, you have to call a human like the old days. Why you ask? Because now the crew callers are questioning everyone if they have Coronavirus before they mark off sick. Soon you will have to talk to a... —  read more 

Integrity!!!???? HAH!! More like 'Tegridy! The sued a crew for running a red even though the loco had a nonworking PTC system installed on it. Then they said they were also suing "for the third parties" involved as well i.e the people whose land they... —  read more 

Tp and purell . This should be fun with only 1 locomotive to work on in the whole shop by Friday

This is the date that supervisors some will be relocated some will go back to their tools some will go home this was told to me by a general foreman that learned this in a morning conference call

Dumpsters are brought in, one after another in each department for the closure of Conway.. not too much longer all the freights going to Bellevue:-(

So who or where will be the first person dumb enough to walk in to their supervisors office and announce they have the Corona virus? You get instantly pulled out of service and forced to be off wo pay on FMLA.

Wounded if it’s time for employees to look into a class action suit..

Do we have any volunteers who are willing to contract the coronavirus and head down to Atlanta HQ’s to lick doorknobs and cough on keyboards of the corporate elite? Your service will never be forgotten

And posts it to the corporate computer system forcing all employees to watch it. He said that employee health is most important. Then they send out an email about how some Atlanta corporate employee felt sick and reported it, the shut down the 2nd... —  read more 

Stock is down to 161! Hopefully it will keep falling. Let's sit back and watch Farrell and his cronies squirm. No amount of furloughs gonna help now

Prove me wrong

Heard from a reliable source. Big cuts tomorrow.

To make room for RLS jobs in two weeks . RLS will be shut down early . From a reliable source in Atlanta

Word is they are calling 12 te employees back in Bellevue, Ohio after all this.

I was given my papers in november. I can't wait to see ns hit rock bottom and burn. All this psr and short term stuff will backfire.

How do you see things - what will happen next?

It’s a bit unsettling that no one seems to care about Dayton workers being contractors. No union memberships or NS employment there. And now they are going to take over material from RDC?

Over the weekend NS stock prices took a big heat due to the coronavirus’s impact on the stock market. NS has figured out that rules checks and monitoring breaks is the cure! So happy that NS figures out what the CDC couldn’t!

Ok, my highly placed sources have told me that NS will start 1 man crew test runs by summertime, they won't wait for the union contract to finish and don't care what the union says to complain about it. They intend to do as they please and let the... —  read more

So....anybody have any ideas what the life changing announcement will be Monday?? Ive heard the start of 1 man crews, heavy management cuts, more t&e cuts, mech cuts. 3/2/20 sounds like a very interesting day, on top of the stock taking a nose... —  read more 

Just heard from a reliable source I went to Carman school with that works in Chicago that Conway will be closing March 2nd.

I heard that Dayton and Jun is already full and RDC hasn’t started to send much yet.

Is anyone else celebrating (assuming you sold all yours when it was still around $210)? Oh Happy Days!!! Anyone notice how about 1-2 weeks before it dropped quickly there were 4 insider sales from upper management? That’s right, the COO $old 11k... —  read more
