It does apply to the railroad in general but there are a few job titles grandfathered in that don't require a P. Eng. such as locomotive engineer (the other common one is power engineer) because those job titles were used before the engineering regulations existed and the job descriptions don't match the modern definition of engineering in Canada. For engineering disciplines in the railroad industry such as structural, mechanical and electrical, a P. Eng. is indeed required.
