Interpret train orders, signals, or railroad rules and regulations that govern the operation of locomotives. Confer with conductors or traffic control center personnel via radiophones to issue or receive information concerning stops, delays, or oncoming trains. Receive starting signals from conductors and use controls such as throttles or air brakes to drive electric, diesel-electric, or electric locomotives. Monitor gauges or meters that measure speed, amperage, battery charge, or air pressure in brake lines or in main reservoirs. Observe tracks to detect obstructions. Call out train signals to assistants to verify meanings. Operate locomotives to transport freight between stations or to assemble or disassemble trains within rail yards. Respond to emergency conditions or breakdowns, following applicable safety procedures and rules. Inspect locomotives to verify adequate fuel, sand, water, or other supplies before each run or to check for mechanical problems. Inspect locomotives after runs to detect damaged or defective equipment. Prepare reports regarding any problems encountered, such as accidents, signaling problems, unscheduled stops, or delays. Check to ensure that documentation, such as procedure manuals or logbooks, are in the driver's cab and available for staff use. Monitor train loading procedures to ensure that freight or rolling stock are loaded or unloaded without damage.

Inspect, measure, or test completed metal workpieces to ensure conformance to specifications, using measuring and testing devices. Read blueprints, work orders, or production schedules to determine product or job instructions or specifications. Assemble, align, and clamp workpieces into holding fixtures to bond, heat-treat, or solder fabricated metal components. Set up, operate, or tend welding machines that join or bond components to fabricate metal products or assemblies. Lay out, fit, or connect parts to be bonded, calculating production measurements as necessary. Correct problems by adjusting controls or by stopping machines and opening holding devices. Give directions to other workers regarding machine set-up and use. Select, position, align, and bolt jigs, holding fixtures, guides, or stops onto machines, using measuring instruments and hand tools. Mark weld points and positions of components on workpieces, using rules, squares, templates, or scribes. Transfer components, metal products, or assemblies, using moving equipment. Prepare metal surfaces or workpieces, using hand-operated equipment, such as grinders, cutters, or drills. Clean, lubricate, maintain, and adjust equipment to maintain efficient operation, using air hoses, cleaning fluids, and hand tools. Conduct trial runs before welding, soldering, or brazing and make necessary adjustments to equipment. Remove completed workpieces or parts from machinery, using hand tools. Tend auxiliary equipment used in welding processes.
Load or feed workpieces into welding machines to join or bond components. Observe meters, gauges, or machine operations to ensure that soldering or brazing processes meet specifications. Turn and press knobs and buttons or enter operating instructions to adjust and start welding machines. Compute and record settings for new work, applying knowledge of metal properties, principles of welding, and shop mathematics. Set dials and timing controls to regulate electrical current, gas flow pressure, heating or cooling cycles, or shut-off. Record operational information on specified production reports. Select torch tips, alloys, flux, core, tubing, or wire, according to metal types or thicknesses, data charts, or records. Fill hoppers and position spouts to direct flow of flux or manually brush flux onto seams of workpieces. Start, monitor, and adjust robotic welding production lines. Devise or build fixtures or jigs used to hold parts in place during welding, brazing, or soldering. Add chemicals or materials to workpieces or machines to facilitate bonding or to cool workpieces. Immerse completed workpieces into water or oil baths to cool and clean components. Dress electrodes, using tip dressers, files, emery cloths, or dressing wheels. Anneal finished workpieces to relieve internal stress.

Adjust machine controls and change tool settings to keep dimensions within specified tolerances. Replace worn tools, and sharpen dull cutting tools and dies using bench grinders or cutter-grinding machines. Inspect sample workpieces to verify conformance with specifications, using instruments such as gauges, micrometers, and dial indicators. Start lathe or turning machines and observe operations to ensure that specifications are met. Position, secure, and align cutting tools in tool holders on machines, using hand tools, and verify their positions with measuring instruments.
Crank machines through cycles, stopping to adjust tool positions and machine controls to ensure specified timing, clearances, and tolerances. Study blueprints, layouts or charts, and job orders for information on specifications and tooling instructions, and to determine material requirements and operational sequences. Move controls to set cutting speeds and depths and feed rates, and to position tools in relation to workpieces. Select cutting tools and tooling instructions, according to written specifications or knowledge of metal properties and shop mathematics. Install holding fixtures, cams, gears, and stops to control stock and tool movement, using hand tools, power tools, and measuring instruments. Refill, change, and monitor the level of fluids, such as oil and coolant, in machines. Compute unspecified dimensions and machine settings, using knowledge of metal properties and shop mathematics.
