A Look Back at Some Late Twentieth Century Rail Labor History

Will Snell served for nearly twenty years as a General Chairman for IAM railroad machinists.

A summary of his career follows the interview he gave to Jon Flanders in March of 2008

Will is planning on writing a book on his experiences. Of that project he says " Let the new generation of rail workers benefit from the victories and defeats of the past."

He also says that "it should be made clear that my some 40 years of experience in working for, or dealing with, railroads and unions on a daily basis is confined to that portion of the railroad industry east of the Mississippi River."
