Mike's Railroad Crossing Forum

Hey y'all, I got a job interview coming up for next week with NSC (National Signal Corporation)...

The guy said he's definately interested in an interview...and my qualifications are what they are looking for. I told him, and stated in the application as well (it was submitted over a year ago) that I have experience with signal testing...and maintenance.

He asked also if I was willing to relocate...and I said if I have to, that's no problem. He has about 50 open crossings in Indiana, north of Evansville...so I may be moving if I get the job and there isn't anything closer...

I'm really excited...as you all know...I would do anything in the world to get a job with railroad signals....

Hmmmmmmm....Indiana.... Well, it sure sounds like something fun. Too bad CN never got back to you... You would've had a lot of fun with all those triple and quad crossings.

Yeah, but I wouldn't of had that territory anyways, since the maintainer I know has it already. It would be nice though to get out of this area for a while....that's for sure...

Something I noticed about that company, is that they have LEDs.

Apparently, they use GE/Harmon's fading LEDs, and is available in both 8" and 12" sizes!

They range from $162 to $167 per 8" light, or $182 to $202 per LED light, however there is a teeny-weeny discount if you buy in bulk.

Any good crossings for the main part of the site too? Not just for the forum?

Sounds good. I've been wanting to see what's down there.

Yep. I've been told a time or two.
