Railway Engineering Apprenticeships In London

Study a Railway Engineering Apprenticeship in London and gain a comprehensive qualification in both the theory and practice of trains, all while working in the transport industry.

Train travel is at the heart of connectivity throughout London, the UK and Europe as a whole, with over 4 million journeys being made across the 20,000 miles of track in England, Scotland and Wales every day. Rail Track Engineers help ensure train services are safe, reliable and efficient, servicing the network and helping things run smoothly.

As a Railway Engineering Apprentice, you will undertake the core learning required to maintain railways and also have the opportunity to specialise in one particular discipline.

Our railway apprenticeships provide a thorough understanding of Rail Track Engineering, including the railway infrastructure, signalling systems and overhead line equipment. At our Enfield Centre, you'll find a fully equipped, specialist workshop to help replicate working in the industry, with many of our students going on to work in companies such as VGC Limited, Volker Rail, Aspins, Infocus Rail, McGinleys and Colas Rail.

Become a part of our Railway Academy which was awarded ‘Training Provider of the Year‘ by the National Training Academy for Rail (NTAR) for two consecutive years and works with well-known employers including Siemens, Alstom, Thales, and Transport for London.
