I think that what Andrew was referring too was not the need to know how to
fix it, but the fact that a TRAIN driver needs to "Maintain a good general
mechanical and technical understanding of TRAMS". It wouldn't help you much
if the train you were driving broke down and all you knew how to fix was a
tram....
