At RailCrew Xpress, we assist America's railroads to better serve the nation, by providing safe and reliable crew transportation, while conducting ourselves in a manner that promotes reward, fairness, respect, and consideration for all our stakeholders, including employees, customers, suppliers and shareholders. The founders started the company because they saw a need for technology solutions to streamline the crew transportation component of the freight railway business. The railway industry has strict contract penalties with their suppliers so it is critical we guarantee to our customers that their rail crews will always arrive on time. Railways depend on third party providers to transport crew—mainly engineers and conductors—from train to train. This may seem odd to those who might wonder, why don’t the crew members just get on another train? The answer lies in the fact that the limited infrastructure for freight rail transportation is already overextended: tracks that should handle 10 trips per day handle 40. The freight routes are also fairly short, 150 to 250 miles, and trains and crews are scheduled to the limit. Basic Requirements to join the team: http://www.RCXhires.com Must be 21 years or older Full and part time openings. Days or nights No felonies, drug testing is mandatory Must have clear MVR for previous 7 years
