Good evening all,
I'm after a spot of advice please!
I'm approaching the end of a fulfilling career in the Armed Forces, 22 years plus done in an engineering trade. I've always loved the railways and things connected so would like to make a second career in this. I'd like a job in the maintaining / engineering side if possible, and would like to think I'd be able to progress up the ladder in this. How would people suggest i progress please? For information i live in rural Shropshire, and to the best of my knowledge the nearest large rail centre is Crewe, about 1 hour away according to Google Maps at present, or Chester, slightly closer at 45 minutes (traffic as expected on a Sunday evening!).
I have completed the EAL L3 Certificate in Traction and Rolling Stocking Systems recently and found the experience very informative and interesting, and have various qualifications gained through my time in the Forces.
All suggestions are welcome!
Thanks,
Goofle!
