USA - West Burlington, IA -- The Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway Shops
will close its doors by the end of the year. Around forty employees at the West
Burlington Shops have been offered jobs at the railroad's Galesburg location.
BNSF spokesman Steve Forsberg tells WGEM's Southeast Iowa Reporter Emily
Engberg the rail industry is moving a record number of locomotives and the
employees at the West Burlington shops can be put to better use in Galesburg.
Forsberg says negotiation agreements have to be approved with local union
leaders before the move takes place. Two-hundred and fifty-eight people at the
shops lost their jobs in January of 2003.
