Three Rail Unions Refuse Wage Rise Amid Broad Settlement
The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen, and Switchmen's Union of North America, representing 125,060 workers, reject a 15 14 cent hourly increase. The offer was accepted by 1,175,000 other railroad employees and a mediation process was underway. Railroads argue a strike threat by these unions is unwarranted given widespread agreements and high pay among engineers and firemen.
