Hello!
I'm a Swedish train driver with a European train driving license (which I suppose all train drivers within the EU now must have). Me and my wife are very interested in moving to the north of England, if there is a possibility.
Do you know if a foreign educated train driver can apply for jobs in the UK? I would of course need new training for the UK railway system (signals, railway vocabulary, routines etc). Would it be a merit to have education and work-experience from another EU country?
Do you know where I can write to inquire further? To the train operators directly?
Could you tell me who the main operators in the north of England are and what cities they have depots in?
Lots of question, would be grateful for any information you can provide!
