Frequently Asked Questions
I have operated so many times over the decades, I'm sure I've been a Yardmaster several times, is that enough?Well, we do require more specificity than that. If you consider yourself a proven yardmaster then the idea of walking in to a large layout and being handed responsibility for a busy important yard isn't terribly daunting. You would have done the job several times before with confidence and welcome the opportunity to bring your skills to the assignment. Many people who "maybe once or twice" did the job may not really have the experience to walk in to the situation above... nor necessarily get credit toward the Yardmaster Award. So, tell us your story if you feel confident yards are your bag. if less confident, we'd love to see you back here after you've done it a few more times.
