We meet some of the Tube's 3,200 drivers as they start their shifts and show us what really goes on behind the wheel. We also meet Andy Hogg in the control centre - the hub where the trains are controlled and directed. Finally, we meet the men of an Emergency Response Unit, primed to cope with any crisis on the London Underground.

    I would DEARLY love to be a tube driver ... Things going wrong never phase me, you just crack on, follow procedure and improvise using common sense when procedure doesn't quite cover the situation. Maybe a day or two a week though ... I've done jobs where I'm on my own the whole time but this probably gets boring pretty quick.

    ASTLEYFAM Seb & Kieran well, you say that, but if you look TfL have said the NtubeFL are capable of being fully automated, but it wouldn't happen till 2055 at least as with the current infrastructure, it's not safe, both management and unions recognise that. And all those new trains (Sstock and 09 stock) will have drivers and aren't capable of being entirely autonomous all trains now are designed to have a driver and that's the way it will be for a while. Yes they will be capable of driving themselves, but they will have a driver onboard who will have overall control, also the Bakerloo line won't get new trains till 2033 and even then they need to install all of the relevant infrastructure after that (signal systems, PEDs, control rooms etc) so I reckon you'll be able to fully drive a train on LUL even in 2035 and even then, what about network rail? They have refused point blanc to introduce ATC and ATO on their railway (maintenance and training costs are too high as it would be a specialised piece of track). So even in 2040 at least, you'll be able to partially drive a train. In case you are wondering, I do drive tube trains for a living.

    It's surprisingly quite lucrative. A few drivers have grossed over £100,000 per annum, though this is unusual. I believe recruitment for drivers is internal only nowadays, so you have to have worked for TfL or Underground to even have a chance of applying.
