    From perusing /r/railroading, it sounds like they’re okay with the outcome, if not overly enthusiastic. The real problem may be yet to come. The Senate still has yet to approve this, and Republicans can filibuster the bill that includes sick days.

      Still though, the point remains that we wouldn’t be in this spot to begin with if the critical rail road workers weren’t being consistently nickel-and-dime’d by the mega-corp rail companies.
