I work for a railroad company as a train conductor. Cool! So you are responsible for the duties of the train that don't actually involve driving it, right? Yep! I make sure that the train runs on schedule and I also direct the train's movement. The name ''conductor'' is most used in North America. People in other areas of the world have other names for it. Do you ever work internationally? Unfortunately, I don't work internationally, but I have been on trains when I visited other countries. What other names do they have for a conductor?
