Train and engine employees on Fulton County Railway outside Atlanta have voted for UTU representation. The switching railroad, owned by OmniTRAX, operates 55 miles of former CSX track in an industrial park serving some 40 warehouses and light-manufacturing plants.
UTU International President Mike Futhey thanked Richard Ross, the UTUs director of organizing, and organizer Mike Lewis for their leadership, which resulted in 100 percent of ballots cast marked for the UTU.
OmniTRAX owns 17 shortline and switching railroads in the U.S. and Canada.
