Got news for you again, he is 100% correct. The vast majority of ex Guards
are excellent Drivers. They have had experience in the other part of the
train and know what is basically required. Of course Guards are already
qualified to drive in the case of an emergency as well as being trained in
the mechanical side (ableit not as in depth as a Driver) as well.
