Rise of the Order of Railway Conductors in 19th Century
The Order of Railway Conductors formed in 1868 via union of two conductors groups on the Chicago area lines. A ban on strikes remained until 1889 when Grand Chief E B Clark led amending efforts. From under 14,000 members in 1868 to 33,000 in recent years, the brotherhood now has 454 divisions and extensive railroad trade agreements. The benefit department has paid $6.5 million in death and disability claims through May 21, with $115,000 paid in April.
