How to transfer my bike through train to another city?
well, apply to the relevent TOC (Train Operating Company), then, they take you to their main headquaters, give you a written exam, test your eye sight *has to be 2020 vison* once you complete this, they take you to a simuator of your engine and get you to start learning your route, you have to know your route view by view, sound by sound you have to know exactly where you are. for instants, in fog, you have to know where the next signal is, just incase it is red.Then! once you have completed this, another written exam.
Then you take your engine out for real on your route ... but as empty coaching stock and have an instructer with you.. this lasts for about a month then an examiner comes on board without your knowing. then ... and only then you pass his or her requirements, you get your route card signed to say you are a qualified driver on that route only ... if you want another route, start your training all over again.

Might as well become a truck driver. Both jobs suck.why don't freight trains have cabooses anymore?
typically, a person has to work their way up the chain of command. starting with the grunt work. you can then go from track work to coupling and uncoupling the trains. from then you can take some tests and you are an engineer which is on call 24 hours per day 7 days per week. typically working 12-16 hour shiftsFirst inquire to train engineer how they become a train engineer, then follow it up to dep't. of transportation who regulate the transportation industry, ask them if there is some requirements needed or if there is a law on how to become a train operator. What i know is that when they buy anew train usually somebody from company who bought & operate the train choose among their employees (usually who works directly in train like mechanics, an egineer, maintenance man etc.) to be trained by the vendor on how to operate the machine.
what is the train station called in scotland?
Get a taxi licence.If you're in the UK, then you have to apply to a Train Operating Company. Fill in the application they send. If they like what they read, then they will invite you to take some tests to see if you have the relevant skills for training. The tests involve memory, concentration, mechanical know-how and reaction. The reaction tests are in front of a computer screen and you have to press the correct buttons which correspond with certain sounds within a very short time. Similar to a game of 'Bop-it' !!
If you are successful, then you may be invited back for a formal structured interview which is designed to see if you have the correct qualities for the job.
Again if successful, you would be sent for a medical which is the same as the one airline pilots have to undergo and is very strict. Eyesight is tested, as is hearing, balance, heart and overall health. A drink and drugs test also takes place. As for eyesight, you do indeed need 20/20 vision, but this can be with the aid of glasses.
If successful, then you would probably be offered the job and then you can look forward to a year plus of intensive training. It's hard work, but worth it at the end.
Good luck!!
Oh, BTW, be patient with the TOCs as they are all notoriously slow in corresponding with the job application process. Some people wait for months or even years to get the opportunity to join as a trainee train driver. Finally, don't bother unless you're over 21 as this is the minimum age...
Does anyone have a crew change guide....?
i work 4 csx ... they dont hire engineers off the street , u have to start as a conductor and then they send u to engine school after a few years.. at least at csx.. dunno about the other RR..Look on the web for the various train operating companies sites , log on and see what requirements and vacancies are available and take it from there.
If you are selected for interview you will be sent for testing and if you pass that you will then start a 26 week basic training course.
Be warned the competition is very very strong for the limited places available at any one time.

train driver jobs in oxfordshire?
My dad was a train driver for 38 years and all i know is, that when he first started he was a station porter, local to where he lived. Then he gradually started to learn the ropes on diesel trains and progressed onto electric trains.I dare say, like him, you will probably will need to contact your local railway network and ask if they have any opportunities for new trainees.
I don't think you'll regret it. My dad told us some fantastic stories about his work ( although sometimes hard ) and also I don't think the pay is too bad either. Good luck in what ever you do!
