The New York Central and specifically The Big Four due to the fact that pretty much my whole family worked there in Bellefontaine, Ohio at some time in the past. My dad and his brother were machinists, my grandfather was an electrician, my other grandfather was the district boiler foreman, his four brothers were carmen ,laborers and hostlers. My aunt was a secretary to the master mechanic, her dad and his brother were engineers. Another aunt's husband and his two brothers were conductors. I started in 1974 with Penn Central the "Rodney Dangerfield" of railroads. Later Conrail, a brief year and a half with CSX and finally retired from Norfolk Southern after forty one years total.
