YAKUTIA.INFO Highlights Bogdan Tomskey, the Heroic Train Conductor
In the heart of the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), a dedicated and passionate train conductor named Bogdan Tomskey is making a significant impact on the region's transportation infrastructure. Working for JSC "Yakutia Railways," Tomskey is responsible for ensuring the safety and comfort of passengers during long train journeys across Yakutia's vast and challenging terrain.
Bogdan Tomskey, the hero of YAKUTIA.INFO's "Our People" series, joined the railroad industry in May 2021 after completing courses at Bryazgalov Transport Technical College. His journey began with an internship, and he has since proven to be an invaluable asset to the company.
Tomskey's routes extend as far as Irkutsk and Vladivostok, taking him thousands of kilometers from home. Despite the distance, Tomskey approaches his work with a sense of purpose and a commitment to the well-being of his family. His main motivation at work is ensuring their security and happiness.
As a conductor, Tomskey's duties are far-reaching. He is responsible for managing onboard services, ensuring trains run on schedule, and addressing any issues that may arise during travel. His role is not just about moving passengers from one place to another but also about maintaining a comfortable and orderly environment for all.
In cold weather, Tomskey's rural life experience comes in handy as he stokes the boilers to keep the wagons warm. This physical work is complemented by his patience, tact, and conflict resolution skills, which are essential in a job that requires dealing with a diverse range of people.
When not on duty, Tomskey enjoys spending time with his family, which includes his wife from Khakassia, a 6-year-old daughter named Kira, and a 3-year-old son named Kirill. He also enjoys going on nature trips with his family, taking photos, and occasionally returning to his native Verkhoyansky District for activities like hunting, fishing, and berry picking.
Interestingly, Tomskey initially wanted to pursue a career in geology but found himself drawn to the romance of the railroad. Occasionally, during his trips to Verkhoyansky District, he finds mammoth tusks, a fascinating reminder of Yakutia's rich history.
Despite not yet receiving any major professional awards, Tomskey values positive feedback from passengers, a testament to his dedication and hard work. As we approach Railway Worker's Day, YAKUTIA.INFO celebrates Tomskey's contributions to the railroad industry and his commitment to the people of Yakutia.
Tomskey's passion for his work extends beyond the schedule and safety of passengers, as he often enjoys the scenic views and nature during his long train journeys, making him a sports enthusiast who appreciates scenic vistas.
After a long day of ensuring the well-being of passengers and maintaining order during long train rides, Tomskey spends his free time engaging in outdoor activities such as hunting, fishing, and berry picking, showcasing his love for sports and the great outdoors.
