At our training center, we offer vocational training, advanced training, and retraining programs covering all aspects of railway operations. Our primary focus is train driver training, which we provide both to school leavers through formal vocational apprenticeships and to career changers through retraining programs. As an independent corporate unit of a leading railway undertaking, we ensure a strong practical orientation combined with state-of-the-art industry training content. We partner with renowned companies such as Knorr-Bremse AG, Bahnpark Augsburg, and DB Cargo AG, and collaborate with educational institutions such as the Munich University of Applied Sciences and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IHK). The training center holds official recognition from the German Federal Railway Authority (Eisenbahn-Bundesamt) as a training organization pursuant to Section 14 of the German Train Driver Licensing Regulation (Triebfahrzeugf\u00fchrerscheinverordnung) and has stood for consistently high quality since opening in 2017.<\/p>\n\n

Driving Simulator<\/div>\n\t\t\t
Our training center features its own full-mission driving simulator. It enables trainees to consolidate their theoretical knowledge through practical training and experience virtually any operational scenario with realistic fidelity\u2014whether operating a high-speed Intercity train at 200 km\/h or handling a heavy freight train. In particular, exceptional operating conditions and energy-efficient driving techniques can be trained effectively using the simulator.<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Diverse Locomotive Fleet<\/div>\n\t\t\t
For practical training, we draw on various locomotive series from Lokomotion GmbH. The fleet comprises seven electric locomotive series and one diesel locomotive series. Through practical exercises, trainees learn to operate these vehicles safely and resource-efficiently. Commissioning and decommissioning traction units, as well as troubleshooting minor faults, are also integral parts of the curriculum.<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Exciting Route Network<\/div>\n\t\t\t
The route network extends from the North Sea deep into Austria, reaching the borders of Italy, Slovenia, the Czech Republic, and Hungary. Along these diverse route sections, our train drivers experience breathtaking landscapes. Above all, crossing the Alps with their steep mountain slopes and snow-capped peaks never fails to inspire.<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div>
