How much money does a railroad engineer earn?

Answer 1

After about 15-17 years in the trade $100,000 - $140,000. I am a Conductor for the Canadian Pacific Railway and I made $134,000 in 2010. On average I work every other day, sometimes more sometimes less. I've been employed for 22 years at CP. When I work however I am gone for up to 24Hours at a time. Hope this is helpful.

Around $125,000 a year, depending on what kind of engineer you are.
