How does one become a rail operator? Do you need to be a bus operator first?
Hi,
Yes if you would like to ultimately become a Metro Rail operator, you would need to be a bus operator first in order to qualify for training.
Thank you,

I find this policy to be a bit flawed as there are some who are actively studying Rail Transport just to find out that bus operating is required.
I myself am one of of those people. Please confirm to me if I am wasting my time by going to Sac City College instead of operating buses in a hostile environment known as “LA Traffic.”
Hero pay is $16.90 per hour?
$16.90 an hour to take other people’s lives in your hand. Not even a true living wage https://livingwage.mit.edu/counties/06037
