Americans love trains, and so does The Takeaway! So we're telling the story of the people who work on the rails and make sure all our precious cargo gets to us on time. As crucial as these workers are to every facet of the American economy, they're currently facing grueling working conditions and paltry benefits. After negotiations broke down between rail worker unions and companies this past month over paid sick leave benefits, Congress moved to prevent rail workers from striking. But that basic right to strike was won by early labor organizers at the cost of many lives. We're looking at this current labor dispute and the epic battles on the rail that shaped the labor movement, with Jeff Schuhrke, assistant professor at the Harry Van Arsdale Jr. School of Labor Studies at SUNY Empire State. Then, we learn about the workers who were left out of that early labor movement, with Manu Karuka, assistant professor of American studies at Barnard College, and author of "Empire's Tracks: Indigenous Nations, Chinese Workers, and the Transcontinental Railroad." And we hear about how some of these rail workers later built their own engines of power and became vital drivers of the movement for civil rights, from Bob Lettenberger, associate editor of Trains Magazine.

We have renamed our podcast to match the new branding of our blog. “Lubetkin on Communications” better captures the goal of our blog and podcast series, which is to provide a forum for discussion of important communications and public relations issues with newsmakers in the field. But in this episode, we depart from our coverage of public relations to chat with an old friend, David Kwechansky of Toronto, about the most famous electric locomotive in railroading history, the GG-1. David commissioned Grif Teller, the Pennsylvania Railroad's legendary calendar artist, to paint the image above for David's personal collection. Then he got a bright idea. Wouldn't it be cool to ask NJ Transit for a ride on that exact GG-1 locomotive? I was doing public relations for Conrail. Conrail was the contract operator of commuter rail service for NJ Transit in New Jersey when I was assigned to make the arrangements for David's engine ride. David's journey to New Jersey to ride GG-1 #4884 and pick up his painting from Grif Teller's Little Falls, NJ, studio were the subject of an extensive article in Trains Magazine in December 1981.   Three years later, “PodWife” Judy and I got to ride in the cab of GG-1 #4877 when NJ Transit sponsored a special railfan excursion to celebrate the retirement of the last GG-1 from regular rail service. There were several railfan rides on October 29, 1983, but Judy and I were lucky enough to be in the cab on the very last run of the day…and I had a microcassette recorder with me to capture some of the sounds – decades before podcasting became available.   Listen to the podcast here:   Download the podcast program here (Two-channel mono MP3 file, 54.3 mb, duration 00:43:22.)   Subscribe to the RSS feed for the “Lubetkin on Communications” podcast series.
