Sources of Additional Information Significant Points Opportunities are expected to be good for qualified applicants since a large number of workers are expected to retire or leave these occupations from 2008 to 2018. 76 percent of these workers are members of unions, and earnings are relatively high. Nature of the Work About this section Rail transportation workers are employed by three types of railroads: freight, passenger, and urban transit (subway and light rail). Freight railroads transport billions of tons of goods to destinations within the United States and to ports to be shipped abroad. Passenger railroads deliver millions of passengers and long-distance commuters to destinations throughout the country. Subways and light-rail systems move passengers within metropolitan areas and their surrounding suburbs. All of these modes of rail transportation require employees to operate, oversee, and assist in rail operations. Rail transportation workers not only work on trains, but also can be found working in rail yards where railcars are inspected, repaired, coupled, and uncoupled.

28. Railroad Transportation Railroad Transportation . The Sierra Railway of California was incorporated January 1, 1897. Thomas S. Bullock, William Crocker and Prince Andre Poniatowski http://www.tchistory.org/TCHISTORY/Railroads_print.htm

Railroad Transportation The Sierra Railway of California was incorporated January 1, 1897. Thomas S. Bullock, William Crocker and Prince Andre Poniatowski, who represented wealthy French investors, founded the railroad. Bullock brought rails and engines from his original railroad investments used on the Prescott and Arizona Central Railroad. The first forty-one miles were built from Oakdale to Jamestown by November 10, 1897, where the roundhouse and central maintenance facility was set up. After teamsters protested and delayed, the connection line to Sonora was completed on February 16, 1899. From Sonora the railroad added another 12 miles to reach Carters-Summerville (later renamed Tuolumne). By February 1, 1900, the end of the main line was completed with a depot located only a few hundred yards from the new mill of the West Side Flume and Lumber Company. The Sierra Railway was the connection between Sonora, Jamestown and the company lumber towns of Standard and Tuolumne. The West Side Lumber mill at Tuolumne and the mountain mills of Standard Lumber Company furnished the largest source of revenue for the Sierra. The Standard Lumber Company’s Sugar Pine Railroad and the West Side Lumber Company’s West Side Lumber Railroad fed the Sierra Railway. The Angels Camp branch of the Sierra Railway brought freight and passenger service to the bustling gold mines in Calaveras County. After struggling with the elevation changes and resulting steep grades, a system of four switch back spur tracks were designed to bring the Sierra Railway nineteen tortuous miles over trestles and bridges to Angels Camp. The Angel’s branch was completed September 15, 1902 and operated until 1935.
