Good afternoon all,

I'm hoping somebody may be able to assist me regarding the medical guidelines to become a train driver specifically with Northern rail.

I realise that I've asked this question previously but didn't really get the answer I was after so I'm hoping now some time has passed somebody may be able to come forward to assist me.

I'm hoping to find out whether there is a document of medical guidelines that the TOC use when reviewing whether candidates are eligible under the fitness criteria? Failing that I'm hoping to find out whether there is a contactable occupational health unit that I can reach out to to find out whether I would be accepted given my chequered health past.

Any help and assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Below are the RSSB guidelines that have been posted here before and as far as I’m aware are current...
