And many of them get OT. Good job to have if you get hired. Same goes for NJT commuter rails, some conductors can earn $200K after some time.

Just an FYI, the operation of the light rail was contracted out under a "design build operate" contract that is expiring. NJ Transit is in the process of scoping out a new operating agreement and will be looking to go to bid for new a contract.

What that means for getting hired, long term employment, is anyone's guess.
