Height was a valid question for my friend who applied to the Reading for a fireman position in 1970. He was disqualified for being too short at five foot five-and-a half inches. The rulebook demanded that a fireman had to be at least 5'6" so he could reach the (steam locomotive) throttle in the highest position should something render the engineer incapable of operating. |
