Six Generations. One Railroad Legacy. | Union Pacific
A remarkable family legacy: Locomotive Engineer Erin Folsom, and his daughter, Conductor Addy Folsom are the sixth generation of their family to work on the railroad. 🚂The father-daughter duo recently had the unique opportunity to guide a train carrying CEO Jim Vena and other company leaders across Oregon and Idaho. https://lnkd.in/dtMN5NJn
Why this matters for talent
A six-generation railroad family is a culture story, and Union Pacific is telling it for a reason. Railroads compete for operating crafts such as engineers and conductors, and a career you could pass down is a real part of that pitch. Union Pacific has more than 75 open roles on the board. If you are looking at rail, ask how the company builds careers over time, because that is what it is selling.
