Ian Kingston Email and Phone Number

I’m an experienced Train Driver with experience in both passenger and intermodal freight. I’ve also taught new drivers how to apply what they’ve learn in the classroom to real life situations.Throughout my working life, I’ve been fortunate to maintain my interest in live events working on projects from live music and sports tournaments to exhibitions and conferences at some of the biggest and best venues in the country.Previous to my life in the railway, I had a varied career in the Fire Service, attending some notable incidents locally but also nationally including the Christmas Floods in York and surrounding areas. Having qualified as an incident commander, I was able to attend a variety of incidents and see them through to completion, managing multiple crews. I was responsible for the day to day managing and welfare of my own crew including their training, kit and equipment - not forgetting to ensure pay and leave were looked after!
