Charles L. Culver had this to say about the Re-Certification Program at
Modoc Railroad Academy:

"Having recently spent a week at your facility for my locomotive engineer recertification training, I would like to thank you and Scott for your hospitality. I found Modoc to be a high-tech, state of the art training facility where boots get dusty, hands get dirty and students get a taste of railroad life in a structured, disciplined environment. I have nearly four decades of railroad experience, and was quite impressed. I found your hands-on equipment, from track switches to air brake components, simulators, cars and locomotives, to be very useful in the course. Your computer learning aids were equally valuable."
