Railway Driver is the most important person in executing the huge task of transporting nearly seventeen million passengers and more than two million ton of fright daily with the help of 2,25,000 wagons, 45,000 coaches and more than 8300 locomotive engines of various kinds.

To transport seventeen million passengers and millions of tons of fright and that too with taking care of both the traveler’s convenience and safety is not a mean task. To carry out this huge task Railway Ministry has employees of various categories for all kinds of tasks like clerical staff, supervisors, inspectors, Drivers, Guards and policy makers etc.

But the ultimate executer of the task is the one who gives the finishing touch to this work and that is the driver of the train. No doubt every single person is equally important for the safe journey of a train but in the end it is the driver on whose sincerity the journey of a train depends. If he is not capable of carrying his responsibility then the efforts of the other employees go waste, in this sense we can say that he is the most important person of the railways as the fighter pilot in an Air force battle is.
Thus Engine Driver is one of the most important posts in the railway staff. He is the person (along with the Guard) in charge of the train. Although he has to rely on the guard for assuring himself that the station master (directly or indirectly) has authorized the departure of the train from the station and guard can also require the driver to stop the train, or to operate it under his direction yet driver is also responsible to carry the train safely to its destination. For instance, in some cases if the train parts, or breaks down, or if a signal is defective the driver must consult the guard on how to proceed but ultimately it is the driver whose presence of mind, calmness, responsibility towards his work and above all his co-ordination with the guard is necessary to do the job in tough conditions.

We can say that he is the person who shoulders the responsibility along with the Guard of taking the train from one destination to other safely. In that sense he is one of the most important employees in the setup. One has to be really dedicated and hardworking to handle this work. The job of a Driver demands hard work and great presence of mind along with courage to handle adverse conditions. For this one should have discipline, patience, responsibility, punctuality, commitment, courage and above all self-confidence. The job requires lots of hard work, stamina, alertness of mind, adaptability to follow difficult time schedules too.

To discharge his duties efficiently and effectively he requires special training and knowledge.
