We represent the Locomotive Engineers working for New Jersey Transit.

Division 171 meetings are held the second Friday of the month at 11:00am at Shannon's Lounge, First St., Hoboken, New Jersey.  All BLET members are welcome to attend.  Newly promoted engineer's are encouraged to join. Not all Divisions pay the same dues, some are higher than others.

J. Picca is our Safety Officer.  ANY safety issues you see, please let him know.  If your cell phone has a camera feature, e-mail equipment defects or safety problems to: safety@blet171.org . These photos will be posted on this web-site.  I have posted articles on rail safety from our General Chairman and an email from our brother engineer.  

We have set up an account with WearGuard (Aramark).  You can check out their products at www.aramark-uniform.com.  Members can see the "logo wear", either the double horse heads or the old style E.
