Case study
Amy Carpenter, 35,
is a train driver for London Overground
Rail Operations Ltd (LOROL)
'I used to work as a
dresser and PA for
West End musicals,
then as a production
assistant for Strictly
Come Dancing and
Top Gear. It wasn't a secure profession
and I was working 70 hour weeks for
little money. I wanted a job for life and,
because my mother was a tube train
driver, it put the idea in my mind.
'A job was advertised for a trainee
driver for LOROL and I went for it. They
wanted people who didn't mind shift
work, had good concentration and
could follow rules and procedures.
I was taken on and had eight months
of training, half in the classroom and
half practical instruction on a train.
'The first time I went out on a train it
felt high up and very fast, even though
I was only going 5mph! I really dreaded
using the simulator because it threw
every scenario at us including train
fires, cows and cars on the line, so we
had no idea what was coming next.
'Once I'd qualified, my first time
driving a train full of passengers for the
first time, in the rain, was incredibly
nerve-wracking but, after I'd done it
once, I felt much more confident.
'What makes me laugh is the
reaction of passengers when I pull
into a platform - if the window is open
I hear them saying, "Wow, it's a lady
driver!" I'd love to see more women
do this - it's no longer physically hard
because it's all computerised. The
only restriction is height - you need
to be over 5ft 3in so you're at the right
eye level and can reach the pedals.
'It's a career open to all because
no specific qualifications are needed,
but there are psychometric tests and
interviews to pass. There are lots of
benefits, too, including a good salary
and pension, as well as discounted
rail travel for you and your family.
'My role has room for progression
on to fast and international trains.
I really have found my career for life.'

According to
Department for Transport
statistics, light rail and
underground passenger
journeys were both at their
highest levels ever in
2013/14, so roles in this
industry are secure
