I'll post what I've posted on these threads for over ten years here.

When the freight trains start going by my house with less than a three-man crew I'll start worrying.....
The freight trains that go by most people's houses in the U.S. now have less than a three man crew these days in case you didn't know...

Most freight trains on most railroads today have a crew of two: one conductor and one engineer.

Don't worry son, the union will take care of you...
