This is one hell of a manga. It's cool to see different meanings to 'giving up one's dream'. It really ties in the message from the last arc: you choose what you give up. Where the first gave up their dream in their entirety, this man gave up his 'dream of driving a train in for a major company' and turned it into the 'dream of driving a train'.

I'm pretty young but I'm at that point where I'm wondering if I should switch my careers and this manga just hits hard.

Pretty nice ending for this arc, though I do wish we saw more of the father before this chapter. It's mentioned during the counseling session in chapter 3 that the main reason he chose for a major railway company is to appease his dad who wants him to get a stable job, but we don't really get any scenes where his father directly tells him any of that. It makes him standing up to his father here feel not as impactful as it could be, in my opinion at least lol.

This hits hard. It's nice to see other results from the sensei's guidance counselling. Looking forward for the next arc!

The author probably thought every japanese reader will naturally understand the father figure (because it fits a lot of households) and didn't explore it further due to that

No problem, I'm glad I can bring this series to people.

Also, maybe just check out Gunjou Senki... Libidors is... not great.
