I worked through all your videos about 18 months ago as I was applying to get into driving. 18 months down the line I have been successful, finished all the classroom training and was about to get out driving with a minder when Covid hit. Thanks for inspiration and help from these videos

    Welcome back :)
    I could hazard a few guesses on the differences.....one being less people you have to deal with, perhaps another is allowing you to drive over service/freight lines such as the Dudding Hill line?
    Looking forward do it!

      I hope you get in. It can be a hard career, but also has many good points. Just remember that nothing that you know from spotting/buffing about the railway. Always listen to what your trainer says, and never say “I know.” There are many fine points to learn.
