Train conductors are responsible for a train's crew, cars, and paperwork, and on passenger services for the people on board. They carry out switching moves, check that the train is made up and secured correctly, and apply operating rules that govern how trains move safely. The role is rules-driven, weather-exposed, and worked on rosters that include nights and away-from-home rest.

Locomotive engineers operate trains, controlling power and braking over long distances while observing signals, speed limits, and track conditions. The work requires sustained concentration on routes that must be known from memory, and full accountability for a heavy vehicle that cannot stop quickly. Rosters cover nights, weekends, and holidays, and route knowledge must be kept current.
