From Wikipedia:
A railroad engineer, railway engineer, locomotive engineer, train operator, train driver or engine driver is a person who operates a railroad locomotive and train. The engineer is the person in charge of and responsible for the locomotive(s). He or she is also in charge of the mechanical operation of the train, the speed of the train and all train handling. The engineer shares with the conductor/guard, who is in charge of the train, responsibility for the safe operation of the train and application of the rules and procedures of the railway company.
The CD collection covers some of these early textbooks and manuals one would need to become a full fledge locomotive engineer. (Note there is some duplication of book titles between each CD in this series.)
