Railroad Retirement and Unions


Railroad retirement can be a bit confusing. The best resource I have found for explaining it can be found at http://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/progdesc/sspus/railroad.pdf You can also visit http://www.rrb.gov/ to explore anything you would like to know about railroad retirement. The other helpful sites for those of us going into Train Service are Union Related. There are two unions serving Train Service employees. The first is the United Transportation Union (UTU) and the other is the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen (BLET).
