Bridging the gap between your skills today and your future rail career
Introduction to Rolling Stock
Introduction to Rolling Stock - Course Summary
Making the jump into rail can feel daunting...new language, new systems, and a whole new way of working. This course is built to bridge that gap and give you the confidence to take your first step.
By the end, you’ll:
-
Understand how trains and their core systems work, so you can talk the talk with confidence.
-
See how the rail industry is structured, who the key players are, and where you could fit in.
-
Build commercial awareness and an understanding of industry standards & compliance (the things employers look for but rarely explain).
-
Gain the clarity and self-assurance needed to stand out in interviews and make a strong impression from day one.
It’s not about turning you into an expert overnight. It’s about giving you the head start that helps you translate your existing skills into rail, cut down the steep learning curve, and step into your new career with momentum.

I left the RAF during the 2008/09 financial crisis after six years working on Chinook helicopters, including multiple tours of Afghanistan. Like many veterans, I faced the same challenge of translating hard-earned skills into a meaningful civilian career.
A chance encounter at a CTP (Career Transition Partnership) employment fair led me into the rail industry, where I have since built an established rail carrer.
When I started, I knew absolutely nothing about trains. I didn’t even travel on them. The learning curve was steep, and I spent countless evenings poring over train manuals just to keep up.
That experience inspired me to create the course I wish I’d had during my own transition. Introduction to Rolling Stock is designed to give learners the clarity and confidence they need to take their first step into the rail industry.
