Learn about Pat's role at BNSF and his vast experience as an emergency responder, we also cover topics such as response readiness in the hazmat community, challenges in hazmat training, credential standards, and how technology such as virtual reality is changing the way Class I railroads are targeting the Gen Zs entering the workforce.
