RailFocusTrain driver assessment practice
UK train driver selection uses timed aptitude tests of concentration, reaction, visual search, memory, rules, and judgement. These tests practise those task formats so assessment day is not the first time you sit this kind of work, under a clock.
Each card explains what you do in the test, and why it is used. There are 32 tests, and 5 of them are free to try. Sit a free sample with no account, run the Assessment Day Simulator in the same order as the day, print the free aptitude test PDF, or sit the free situational judgement sample.

Interview · Prep + 6 × 2 min
What you do
Six 'describe a time when' questions. Prep a real example, then answer using STAR.
Why it is useful
The interview is not a talk about trains. They want a real example: a risk, a stop, a mistake you owned. A short true story beats a long invented one.

No card required. Start practising in 60 seconds. Practice is for the type of task. It is not the official paper, and a practice score is not a pass.
