    Yes I was very lucky to land the job at Hoffman. A few guys are retiring this year so I was able to get in. So far it has been my dream job and I absolutely love it.

    I think the closest A&R terminal to Nashville is Jackson

    A&R has at least 1 driver based at the Nashville, TN railyard. Technically he is based out of Decatur, AL. I believe that position runs mostly "system" or OTR.
