Railbike Guide Job at Sunburst Train
About Us
Mendocino Railway is a short line railroad that has three operations in California. Mendocino Railway operates the world-famous Skunk Train in Fort Bragg and Willits, the River Fox Train in West Sacramento and the Sunburst Train in Santa Paula.
Summary
The Sunburst Train will be an entertainment-style train that offers a variety of fun and festive excursions. Among the most unique of these excursions are the Santa Paula Railbikes! Our Railbikes are two-seater, motorized and peddle-powered vehicles that ride on the railroad tracks through scenic Ventura County landscapes.
These trips are guided by a trained crew with safety being the highest priority. Each fleet requires two guides, a leader and caboose, who deliver important safety orientation information, provide an operation demonstration, keep pace, assist riders, and load and unload bikes onto the track.
This is a safety sensitive position subject to Federal rules and regulations and subject to pre-employment and random drug and alcohol testing.
