Hi all,
First time posting here!
I find myself in the very fortunate position of deciding between sticking with my current MOM role out in the Home Counties, or taking a train driver role in central London.

Anyone else made the switch and can share some pros and cons?

I love the downtime the MOM role gives, I’m not particularly busy, lots of freedom. But can be slow days sometimes. I love my 12 hour shift pattern which has plenty of rest days. I do feel I need to be busier…

Train driver I have worked out salary wise (once qualified) is probably around 10k more roughly…. Although current extra perks seem to be Sunday payment (contracted or not) will I only be paid extra for Sundays on overtime!?

Has anyone been or is a driver for southern? Would you recommend.

Any help/ suggestions welcome and thanks for your time!
