It takes a very specialized professional, like Stacy Tripp, to jump up front and run one ' through all kinds of weather. Stacy not only knows locomotives and their capabilities. He's continually tested on all phases of updated railroad equipment, safety regulations, his engineering skills and mechanical knowledge. In short, he's up to the big job of getting millions of dollars worth of cargo to and from terminals, safely and on time. g Stacy Tripp is typical of our engineers.
